7、 iii Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for whic
8、h a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all ma
9、tters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Stand
10、ard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Internation
11、al Standard ISO 7485 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 34, Agricultural food products, Subcommittee SC 10, Animal feeding stuffs. Annex A of this International Standard is for information only.INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 7485:2000(E) ISO 2000 All rights reserved 1 Animal feeding stuffs Deter
12、mination of potassium and sodium contents Methods using flame-emission spectrometry 1 Scope This International Standard specifies a calibration method and a standard addition method for the determination of potassium and sodium contents of animal feeding stuffs by flame-emission spectrometry. The st
13、andard addition method applies if it is not known whether the emissions measured for potassium or sodium are subject to matrix effects. The limit of determination for potassium and sodium is 0,04 g/kg. The calibration method applies if such matrix effects have been shown to be absent. 2 Normative re

For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on t
15、his International Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent edition of the normative document indicated below. For undated references, the latest edition of the normative document referred to applies. Members of ISO and IEC maintain registers of currently val

34、 furnace (5.2). Close the furnace and gradually increase the temperature to 550 C and ash for 3 h at this temperature. If many carbon particles are present, allow to cool down, moisten the contents of the dish with 2 ml of water and dry the dish on the sand bath or hot plate (5.5). Ash for another 2
35、 h at 550 C in the muffle furnace. Allow to cool down, moisten the ash with a few drops of water and transfer it to a 250 ml beaker (5.8). Rinse the incineration dish with a total of approximately 5 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid (4.4) and then with a few millilitres of water, collecting the r
36、insings in the beaker. CAUTION Take care during the addition of hydrochloric acid, as an effervescent reaction may occur with some samples. Put a watch glass on the beaker to reduce spattering and slowly evaporate the contents of the beaker to near dryness on the sand bath or hot plate (5.5). Allow
37、to cool to room temperature. Proceed in accordance with 8.2.3. 8.2.2 Dissolution of potassium and sodium Add to the beaker containing the test portion (8.1.2), slowly and carefully, a sufficient quantity (15 ml to 30 ml) of concentrated hydrochloric acid (4.4). Put a watch glass on the beaker to red
38、uce spattering and slowly evaporate the contents of the beaker to dryness on the sand bath or hot plate (5.5). Allow to cool to room temperature. 8.2.3 Re-dissolution of potassium and sodium Treat the residue (8.2.1 or 8.2.2) with 5 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.5) and 45 ml of water. Bring to the boil
39、 and allow to cool to room temperature. Transfer quantitatively into a 100 ml volumetric flask. Dilute to the mark with water and mix. Allow particles to settle for at least 4 h.

44、 are 0 g/ml, 2,0 g/ml, 4,0 g/ml, 6,0 g/ml, 8,0 g/ml and 10,0 g/ml respectively. Prepare fresh on the day of use. 8.5.3 Spectrometric measurements 8.5.3.1 Adjustment of the instrument Adjust the instrument in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. Light the flame and allow some minutes for f
45、lame stabilization. Adjust the burner position, the gas flows and the wavelengths (theoretically 766 nm for potassium and 589 nm for sodium) or select the filters so that maximum reading is obtained when the calibration solution of potassium (4.8.3) or sodium (4.9.3) is atomized in the flame. 8.5.3.
46、2 Test solution measurements Measure the emissions of the calibration solutions (8.5.2) and then the emission of the test solution (8.5.1). Correct the emission of the test solution for the emission of the diluted blank test solution (8.5.1), if the latter differs from the emission of the zero conce
47、ntration calibration solution. 8.5.4 Calibration graph Draw the calibration graph by plotting the emissions of the calibration solutions against their respective potassium or sodium contents in micrograms per millilitre. 8.6 Standard addition method 8.6.1 Test solutions Carry out the dilutions accor
