Interference of some artificial tracers on spectral determinations

Abstract

The aim of this study is to decide which dyes can be used together as artificial tracers in the same water system study and how to avoid their interference at each other when they are in the same water sample, too. In this paper only spectral separation of fluorescent dyes in binary water sample mixtures and treatments based on pH-variations are described. Concentration and synchronous scan methods were used for the measu- rement of Rhodamine WT Liquid, SRG Extra, Uranine and Eosin fluorescence by the means of a Luminescence Spectrometer LS 55.

Spektral tayinlere bazı yapay iz sürücülerin girişimi

Abstract

S unulan çalışmanın amacı; bazı su sistem çalışmalarında hangi boyaların yapay iz sürücü olarak birlikte kullanılabilirliliğini ve ayrıca girişim etkilerinden nasıl sakınılacağını belirlemektir. Bu makalede; ikili örnek karışımlarında floresan boyaların sadece spektral ayrımı ve pH değişimine dayalı işlemler tanımlanmıştır. Lüminesans spektrometre LS 55 ile rodamin WT sıvısı, SRG ekstra, uranin ve eosin floresanların ölçümünde derişim ve eşzamanlı tarama yöntemleri kullanılmıştır
