Sample Preparation Procedure8.1 Testing of Sonicator (Practice E1979):8.1.1 Before use, ensure proper operation of the sonicator by employing one of the following diagnostic tests:8.1.1.1 Turn on the sonicator and allow for a reasonable war

40、m-up period, as recommended by the instrument manufacturer.(1) Insert the tip of a graphite pencil into the bath.(2) If the sonication device is operating properly, graphite in solution will be observed streaming off the tip of the pencil.8.1.1.2 Alternatively, demonstrate proper operation of the so

41、nicator according to the following procedure:(1) Fill the sonicator bath with warm water (ca. 45C)45 C) to a level about half-full, and add a small amount (for example,three drops) of surfactant.(2) Turn on the sonicator for a minimum of 5 min to degas the solution. Turn off the sonicator.(3) Place

42、aluminum foil (that is cut to a size conforming to 12 to 34 of the area of the bottom of the sonicator bath) on the bottomof the sonicator bath. Lower the foil at an angle to prevent the trapping of air beneath the foil. Ensure that a narrow layer of solutionremains between the foil and the bottom o

43、f the sonicator bath. The foil shall be parallel and centered to the bottom of the sonicator.(4) Turn on the sonicator for a period of at least 45 s.(5) Examine the aluminum foil after sonication. The foil should be observed to contain a myriad of small holes and bumps,and may be torn apart.Also, th

44、e perforation observed should be uniform; that is, all portions of the foil should be observed to havea high density of holes and perhaps tears. If the foil is not affected in this manner, then the sonicator performance is inadequatefor the purposes of this practice.8.2 Sample Handling:8.2.1 Don a p

45、air of impermeable gloves.8.2.2 Using clean tweezers and a clean stirring rod as needed, remove the wipes from the sample shipping container and placethe wipes in a clean 125 mL bottle.8.2.3 Using 15 mL 35 % (v/v) nitric acid, wash the inside of the sample shipping container, the tweezer tips, and t

46、he stirringrod into the bottle containing the wipes. Add the remainder of the acid to the bottle, ensuring that the wipes are immersed in theacid. Clean the tweezers and rods before and after use with laboratory wipes.8.2.4 Cap the bottle and shake to assure that the wipes are well wetted with the a

47、cid. If bubbles are observed inside of theimmersed wipe, apply pressure to the wipes with a clean stirring rod in order to force the bubbles up and out.8.2.5 Repeat 8.2.1 to 8.2.4 for successive samples as needed, depending on the size of the ultrasonic bath.NOTE 4Depending on the size of the sonica

48、tor, many bottles may be immersed in the bath at one time.Acustom rack for the bottles may be purchasedor constructed to allow for the regular and orderly placement of multiple bottles in the sonicator bath.8.2.6 Preheat water in the sonicator bath to at least 60C.60 C.8.2.7 Place the bottle (contai

49、ning the wipes immersed in dilute acid) upright in the sonicator bath, and ensure that the water levelin the bath is approximately 2.5 cm above the liquid level within the bottle.8.2.8 Sonicate for at least 30 min at 60C60 C or warmer.8.2.9 Remove the bottles from sonicator bath and allow to cool.8.2.10 When cool, use a clean glass or plastic stirring rod for each sample to push down on the wipes to force bubbles (formedduring sonication) up and out.8.2.11 Add 35 mL of reagent water to each bottle.8.2.12 Recap and shake to mix.8.2.13 Place
