Computerization and the use of automated methods of
analysis allow a high degree of productivity and improve the
quality of services.
In practice, a beam of
light is passed through a
monochromator 单色光仪
that provides selection of
the desired region of the
spectrum to be used for
measurements.
The light next passes through
an absorbance cell, where a
portion of the radiant energy
is absorbed, depending on
the nature and the
concentration of the solution.
Any light not absorbed is
transmitted to a photo-
detector which converts light
energy to electrical energy
that can be registered on a
galvanometer.
In operation, an opaque block is substituted for
the cuvette, so that no light reaches the photocell,
and the meter is adjusted to read
0%T(transmittance). Next, a cuvette containing a
reagent blank 空 白 is inserted and the meter is
adjusted to read 100%T (i.e., zero absorbance).
Calibrating solutions containing various known
concentrations of the substance are inserted,
and readings are recorded. Finally a reading is
made of the unknown solution, and its
concentration is determined by comparison with
the readings obtained on the calibrator.

TURBIDIMETRY
Definitions
1) anode阳极: the positively charged electrode电极
in electrophoresis system.
2) cathode 阴极: negative electrode.
3) isoelectric point (pI)等电点of a molecule:
is the pH at which it has no net charge净电荷and
will not move in an electrical field.
4) ampholyte or zwitterion两性离子 : is a molecule that can be
either positively or negatively charged; example: proteins,
amino acids.
Chemical species carrying an electrical charge
move either to the cathode or the anode in an
electrophoresis system, depending on the kind of
charge they carry.
In a solution more acid than the isoelectric point of
the solute, an ampholyte takes on a positive charge
and migrates toward the cathode. In the reverse
situation, it migrates toward the anode.
The rate of migration 迁移率is dependent on factors
such as:
1) the net electrical charge净电荷of the molecule,
2) the size 大小 and shape 形状 of the molecule,
3) the electric field strength电场强度 ,
4) the characteristics of the supporting medium支持物,
5) and the operation temperature.
Description of Electrophoresis
A schematic diagram of an
electrophoresis system shows:
two buffer boxes缓冲液箱(l)
with baffle plates隔板 contain
the buffer used in the process.
In each buffer box is an
electrode电极(2) of either
platinum铂 or carbon, the
polarity极性 of which is fixed
by the mode of connection to
the power supply.
The electrophoresis support支持物
(3) on which separation take place
is in contact with buffer by means
of wicks (strips) 条子 (4).
The entire device is covered 覆盖
(5) to minimize evaporation蒸发
and protect the system.
The direct current power supply
may be either constant current 恒
流 or constant voltage or both.

Capillary Electrophoresis (CE)
毛细管电泳
In ion-exchange chromatography 离 子 交 换 层 析 ,
solutes in a sample are separated by their
differences in sign and magnitude of ionic charge.
In practice, ionic analytes are selectively eluted
from ion-exchange resins by varying the pH
and/or ionic strength of the mobile phase.
Cation-exchange resins阳离子交换树脂 contain
covalently bound, negatively charged functional
groups, such as sulfonate ions, carboxylate ions or
carboxy-methyl (CM) groups.
This technique is most useful for separation of
organic and inorganic ions, amino acids,
nucleotides, and proteins.
Anion-exchange resins 阴 离 子 交 换 树 脂 are
characterized by the presence of strongly basic
quaternary amines (triethylamino-ethyl groups) or
weakly basic groups (aminoethyl, diethylaminoethyl)
which can bear a positive charge.
Ion-exchange chromatography is widely used to
separate and remove inorganic ion from aqueous
mixtures.
Partition chromatography
分配层析
In partition chromatography (also called thin-layer
chromatography)分配层析, a thin film 薄膜of liquid is
adsorbed onto the surfaces of support particles.
Separation is based on differences in the relative
solubility溶解度 of solute molecules in this film and the
mobile phase.
