The absorbance of

21、the solution is measured at a wavelength of about 546 nm. 5 Reagents 5.1 General Use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and distilled or demineralized water, free from carbon dioxide and ammonia (grade 3 according to EN ISO 3696:1995). The quality of the water is particularly important in

22、this determination. 5.2 Methanol 5.3 Sulfuric acid solution, c = approximately 0,05 mol/l. 5.4 Sodium hydroxide solution, c = approximately 0,1 mol/l. 5.5 Alkaline solution of potassium sodium tartrate In a graduated one-litre flask, dissolve 40 g of sodium hydroxide in 500 ml of water and leave to

23、cool. Add 50 g of potassium sodium tartrate (NaKC4H4O64H2O). Make up to the mark and leave standing for 24 h before use. DIN EN 15479:2009-04 EN 15479:2009 (E) 5 5.6 Solution of copper sulfate In a graduated one-litre flask dissolve 15 g of copper sulfate (CuSO45H2O) in 500 ml of water. Make up to t

30、tom plate of nylon gauze with a mesh width of 0,1 mm and ending in a narrow outlet with tap. The column is filled with cation exchange resin (strong cation: e. g. Duolite C20) to a height of about 120 mm. Before using the column, the resin has first to be regenerated with 100 ml hydrochloric acid (h

31、ydrochloric acid, approximately 4 mol/l solution) and subsequently rinsed with water until the eluent is free from acid. After each determination the resin has to be regenerated. The usable capacity of the cation resin has to be great enough to be sure all the ammonia is caught. The total volume of

32、the resin is about 60 cm3; the usable capacity is about 60 milli-equivalents. 7 Sampling and sample preparation Sampling is not part of the method specified in this document. A recommended sampling method is given in EN 1482-1. Sample preparation shall be carried out in accordance with EN 1482-2. 8

33、Procedure 8.1 Preparation of the calibration curve Transfer 0 ml, 2 ml, 5 ml, 10 ml, 20 ml, 25 ml and 50 ml aliquots of biuret standard solution (5.7) into a series of seven graduated 100 ml flasks. Make up the volumes to about 50 ml with water, add one drop of indicator (5.8) and neutralize, if nec

34、essary, with sulfuric acid 0,05 mol/l (5.3). Stir in 20 ml of the alkaline tartrate solution (5.5) then 20 ml of the copper sulfate solution (5.6). These solutions shall be measured with two precision burettes or better still with pipettes. Make up to 100 ml with water, mix and leave standing for 15

35、 min at (30 2) C. With the “0” biuret standard solution as a reference, measure the absorbance of each solution at a wavelength of about 546 nm using cells of a suitable path length. Plot the calibration curve using the absorbance rate as the ordinate and the corresponding quantities of biuret, in m

36、illigrams, as the abscissa. DIN EN 15479:2009-04 EN 15479:2009 (E) 7 8.2 Preparation of the solution to be analysed Weigh, to the nearest 0,001 g, 10 g of the prepared sample; dissolve in about 150 ml of water in a 250 ml graduated flask, and make up to the mark. Filter if necessary. Weigh to the ne

37、arest 0,001 g about 25 g of the ammoniumsulfate containing sample. Transfer into a beaker glass of 250 ml with about 100 ml of water at about 70 C and dissolve. Filter the solution over a Bchner funnel with a glass fibre filter and wash the filter with approximately 50 ml of water. Transfer the filt

38、rate in a volumetric flask of 250 ml. Bring the temperature to 20 C, dilute to the mark with water and mix. Pipette 100 ml of the solution and pass it through the cation resin with a speed of approximately 150 ml/h. Collect the eluate in a 250 ml volumetric flask. Wash the resin with water until a t

39、otal volume of approximately 220 ml is obtained in the volumetric flask. Dilute to the mark with water and mix. Then proceed as indicated in 8.3. Elimination of the opalescence: if any colloid substance is present, difficulties might arise during filtering. The solution intended for analysis is in t

40、hat case prepared as follows: dissolve the sample for analysis in 150 ml of water, add 2 ml of 1 mol/l hydrochloric acid and filter the solution through two flat very fine filters into a graduated 250 ml flask. Wash the filters with water and make up to volume. Continue the process according to the

41、method as described in 8.3. 8.3 Determination According to the presumed biuret content, transfer 25 ml or 50 ml from the solution mentioned in 8.2 with a pipette, place this quantity in a 100 ml graduated flask and neutralize if necessary with sulfuric acid solution or sodium hydroxide solution (5.3

42、 or 5.4) as required, using methyl red as an indicator and add, with the same accuracy as that used when drawing up a calibration curve, 20 ml of the alkaline solution of potassium sodium tartrate (5.5) and 20 ml of the copper solution (5.6). Make up to volume, mix thoroughly and leave standing for

43、15 min at (30 2) C. Then carry out the photometric measurements and calculate the quantity of biuret present in the urea. 9 Calculation and expression of the result Calculate the mass concentration, B, of biuret in percent of the sample according to the following equation: Vm 5,2B= (6) where m is th

44、e mass, in milligrams, of biuret, read from the calibration graph; V is the volume of the aliquot in millilitre. 10 Precision 10.1 Inter-laboratory test An inter-laboratory test was carried out in 2004 with 13 participating laboratories and two different samples. This test yielded the data given in

45、Annex A. Repeatability and reproducibility were calculated according to ISO 5725-1. The values derived from this inter-laboratory test might not be applicable to concentration ranges and matrices other than those given in Annex A.

46、ute difference between two independent single test results, obtained with the same method on identical test material in the same laboratory by the same operator using the same equipment within a short interval of time, will in not more than 5 % of the cases exceed the values of r given in Table 1. 1
