Summary of Test Method4.1 Capillary ion electrophoresis, see Figs. 7-10, is a freezone electrophoretic technique optimized for the determinationof anions with molecular weight less than 200.
28、The anionsmigrate and are separated according to their mobility in theelectrolyte when an electrical field is applied through the opentubular fused silica capillary. The electrolytes electroosmoticlow modifier dynamically coats the inner wall of the capillarychanging the surface to a net positive ch

The modified EOF incombination with a negative power supply augments themobility of the analyte anions towards the anode and detectorachieving rapid analysis times. Cations migrate in the oppositedirection towards the cathode and are remove
30、d from the sampleduring analysis. Water and other neutral species move towardthe detector at the same rate as the EOF. The neutral speciesmigrate slower than the analyte anions and do not interferewith anion analysis (see Figs. 7 and 8).4.2 The sample is introduced into the capillary using hydro-sta

The capillary is vacuum purged automatically bythe system of any remaining sample and replenished with freshelectrolyte. The system now is ready for the next analysis.5. Significance and Use5.1 Capillary ion electro
35、phoresis provides a simultaneousseparation and determination of several inorganic anions usingnanolitres of sample in a single injection. All anions present inthe sample matrix will be visualized yielding an anionic profileof the sample.5.2 Analysis time is less than 5 minutes with sufficientsensiti
36、vity for drinking water and wastewater applications.Time between samplings is less than seven minutes allowingfor high sample throughput.5.3 Minimal sample preparation is necessary for drinkingwater and wastewater matrices. Typically, only a dilution withwater is needed.5.4 This test method is inten
37、ded as an alternative to othermulti-analyte methods and various wet chemistries for thedetermination of inorganic anions in water and wastewater.Compared to other multi-analyte methods the major benefits ofCIE are speed of analysis, simplicity, and reduced reagentconsumption and operating costs.6. I
38、nterferences6.1 Analyte identification, quantitation, and possible comi-gration occur when one anion is in significant excess to otheranions in the sample matrix. For two adjacent peaks, reliablequantitation can be achieved when the concentration differen-tial is less than 100:1. As the resolution b
39、etween two anionpeaks increase so does the tolerated concentration differential.In samples containing 1000 mg/L Cl, 1 mg/L SO4can beresolved and quantitated, however, the high Cl will interferewith Br and NO2quantitation.6.2 Dissolved carbonate, detected as HCO3-1, is an anionpresent in all aqueous
40、samples, especially alkaline samples.Carbonate concentrations greater than 500 mg/L will interferewith PO4quantitation.6.3 Monovalent organic acids, except for formate, andneutral organics commonly found in wastewater migrate laterin the electropherogram, after carbonate, and do not interfere.Format
41、e, a common organic acid found in environmentalsamples, migrates shortly after fluoride but before phosphate.Formate concentrations greater than 5 mg/L will interfere withfluoride identification and quantitation. Inclusion of 2 mg/Lformate into the mixed anion working solution aids in fluorideand fo
42、rmate identification and quantitation.6.4 Divalent organic acids usually found in wastewatermigrate after phosphate. At high concentrations, greater than10 mg/L, they may interfere with phosphate identification andquantitation.6.5 Chlorate also migrates after phosphate and at concen-trations greater
43、 than 10 mg/L will interfere with phosphateidentification and quantitation. Inclusion of 5 mg/L chlorateinto the mixed anion working solution aids in phosphate andchlorate identification and quantitation.6.6 As analyte concentration increases, analyte peak shapebecomes asymmetrical. If adjacent anal
44、yte peaks are notbaseline resolved, the data system will drop a perpendicularbetween them to the baseline. This causes a decrease in peakarea for both analyte peaks and a low bias for analyte amounts.For optimal quantitation, insure that adjacent peaks are fullyresolved, if they are not, dilute the
