9、SO7485:2000(E) ii ISO 7485:2000(E)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
10、 interested in a subject for which 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 Electrotec
11、hnical Commission (IEC) on all matters 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. Publ
12、ication as an International Standard 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 al
13、l such patent rights. International Standard ISO 7485 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 34, Agricultural food products, Subcommittee SC 10, Animal feeding stuffs.

14、termination 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
15、 standard 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

For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based o
17、n this 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

Close the furnace and gradually increase the temperature to 550 C and
36、 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 h at 550 C in the muffle furnace. Allow to cool down, moisten the ash with a few dro
37、ps 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 rinsings in the beaker. CAUTION Take care during the addition of hydrochloric acid, as
38、 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 to cool to room temperature. Proceed in accordance with 8.2.3. 8.2.2 Dissolution of p
39、otassium 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 reduce spattering and slowly evaporate the contents of the beaker to dryness on the sand
40、 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 and allow to cool to room temperature. Transfer quantitatively into a 100 ml volumet
41、ric flask. Dilute to the mark with water and mix. Allow particles to settle for at least 4 h. Filter if the solution is not clear. CAUTION Perform the above operations in an effective fume-removal device. 8.3 Blank test solution Prepare a solution in the same way as for the test solution, carrying o
42、ut all the operations specified in 8.2 but omitting the test portion. 8.4 Selection of method If it is not known whether the emissions measured for potassium or sodium are subject to matrix effects, proceed in accordance with 8.6. If such matrix effects have been shown to be absent, proceed in accor
43、dance with 8.5. 8.5 Calibration method 8.5.1 Test solutions Transfer to a 100 ml volumetric flask an aliquot portion of the test solution (8.2.3) containing a maximum of 1 mg of potassium or sodium. Add 10 ml of the ionization and release buffer solution (4.7), dilute to the mark with water and mix.
44、 Prepare the same dilution of the blank test solution (8.3) in the same way.ISO 7485:2000(E)5 8.5.2 Calibration solutions Transfer to six 100 ml volumetric flasks 0 ml, 2,0 ml, 4,0 ml, 6,0 ml, 8,0 ml and 10,0 ml of the potassium intermediate solution (4.8.2) or sodium intermediate solution (4.9.2).
45、Add 10 ml of the ionization and release buffer solution (4.7) to each flask. Dilute to the mark with hydrochloric acid (4.6) and mix. The potassium or sodium contents of these solutions 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.
46、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 flame stabilization. Adjust the burner position, the gas flows and the wavelengths (theoretically 766 nm for potassi
47、um 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. 8.5.3.2 Test solution measurements Measure the emissions of the calibration solutions (8.5.2) and then the emission of th
48、e 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 concentration calibration solution. 8.5.4 Calibration graph Draw the calibration graph by plotting the emissions of the
49、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 according to the expected potassium or sodium content. Transfer to each of three volumetric flasks of suitable capacity (flasks A, B and C) the same aliquot portion of the test solution (8.2.3). Add to flasks B and C aliquot portions of the potassium intermediate solution (4.8.2) or sodium intermediate solution (4.9.2) corresponding to a c
