  2. Paper chromatography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_chromatography

    Paper chromatography is a useful technique because it is relatively quick and requires only small quantities of material. Separations in paper chromatography involve the principle of partition. In paper chromatography, substances are distributed between a stationary phase and a mobile phase.

  3. Lateral flow test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_flow_test

    A NASA illustration of a lateral flow assay. A lateral flow test (LFT), [1] is an assay also known as a lateral flow immunochromatographic test (ICT), or rapid test.It is a simple device intended to detect the presence of a target substance in a liquid sample without the need for specialized and costly equipment.

  4. Calibration curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calibration_curve

    A calibration curve plot showing limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), dynamic range, and limit of linearity (LOL).. In analytical chemistry, a calibration curve, also known as a standard curve, is a general method for determining the concentration of a substance in an unknown sample by comparing the unknown to a set of standard samples of known concentration. [1]

  5. Technique for human error-rate prediction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technique_for_human_error...

    For each step of the task, possible errors are considered by the analyst and precisely defined. The possible errors are then considered by the analyst, for each task step. Such errors can be broken down into the following categories: Errors of omission – leaving out a step of the task or the whole task itself

  6. Standard addition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_addition

    When working with limiting amount of sample, an analyst might need to make a single addition, but it is generally considered a best practice to make at least two additions whenever possible. [5] Note that this is not limited to liquid samples. In atomic absorption spectroscopy, for example, standard additions are often used with solid as the ...

  7. Gravimetric analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravimetric_analysis

    Gravimetric analysis describes a set of methods used in analytical chemistry for the quantitative determination of an analyte (the ion being analyzed) based on its mass. The principle of this type of analysis is that once an ion's mass has been determined as a unique compound, that known measurement can then be used to determine the same analyte's mass in a mixture, as long as the relative ...

  8. Elution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elution

    Elution principle of column chromatography. In analytical and organic chemistry, elution is the process of extracting one material from another by washing with a solvent: washing of loaded ion-exchange resins to remove captured ions, or eluting proteins or other biopolymers from a gel electrophoresis or chromatography column.

  9. Titration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titration

    Titration (also known as titrimetry [1] and volumetric analysis) is a common laboratory method of quantitative chemical analysis to determine the concentration of an identified analyte (a substance to be analyzed). A reagent, termed the titrant or titrator, [2] is prepared as a standard solution of known concentration and volume.
