17. 4 1 15 Sample Preparation 4 1 15 1 High Sensitivity Analysis High sensitivity analysis refers to use of the high sensitivity analysis kit to measure trace amounts commonly 0 5mg L or less of TOC in samples such as ultra pure water The precautions described in the sections below should be followed when conducting trace analysis on the order of 10 100ug L Precautions for High Sensitivity Analysis Use TOC high sensitivity catalyst Carefully fill the combustion tube with high sensitivity catalyst to prevent contamina tion of the combustion tube Measuring high concentration samples using TOC high sensitivity catalyst that is intended for the analysis of ultra pure water will influence the results of subsequent analyses on ultra pure water samples This is primarily caused by remaining sample residue The residue may be removed by running repeated analyses of zero water Since removal is difficult with residual salt alkali or highly acidic samples a separate combustion tube containing TOC high sensitivity catalyst should be prepared for use only with ultra pure water samples Verify that both ends of the combustion tube are sealed when storing catalyst that is to be used only for ultra pure water samples Measure samples immediately Samples containing trace carbon such as ultra pure water should be measured immedi ately after collection If analysis cannot be performed immediately store the sample in a dark location at 0 10

106. 4 Sparging During Standard Solution Analysis 6 2 4 Sparging During Standard Solution Analysis Standard solutions that have TC concentrations so low as to be affected by the amount of dissolved carbon dioxide in the solution should be sparged with carrier gas prior to measurement Sparging eliminates the dissolved carbon dioxide thereby preventing it from affecting the concentration of the standard solution The amount of dissolved carbon dioxide in water used for standard solution preparation is affected by factors such as water purification method length and condition of storage and the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere Concentrations of dissolved carbon dioxide increase when the water is exposed to the atmosphere during the standard solution preparation process Refer to Table 6 2 e CO Content ppm in Distilled Water Equilibrated with Atmosphere Temperature C for the dissolution rates of atmospheric carbon dioxide in water It is important to consider both the concentration of the standard solution and the concentration of TOC contained in the preparation water when deciding whether to use the sparging function Use of sparging is appropriate if the TOC contained in the water is low enough to not substantially affect the standard solution concentration but not low enough to be ignored Note Do not use sparging with IC standard solutions as sparging decreases the IC con centration Table 6 2 CO Content p
