two-dimensional chromatography
Chemistry; Analytical chemistry
A paper chromatography technique in which the sample is resolved by standard procedures (ascending, descending, or horizontal solvent movement) and then turned at right angles in ...
oxidation-reduction indicator
Chemistry; Analytical chemistry
A compound whose color in the oxidized state differs from that in the reduced state.
countercurrent cascade
Chemistry; Analytical chemistry
An extraction process involving the introduction of a sample, all at once, into a continuously flowing countercurrent system where both phases are moving in opposite directions ...
ultimate analysis
Chemistry; Analytical chemistry
The determination of the percentage of elements contained in a chemical substance.
oxygen-flask method
Chemistry; Analytical chemistry
Technique to determine the presence of combustible elements; the sample is burned with oxygen in a closed flask, and combustion products are absorbed in water of dilute alkali ...
crosscurrent extraction
Chemistry; Analytical chemistry
Procedure of batchwise liquid-liquid extraction in a separatory funnel; solvent is added to the sample in the funnel, which is then shaken, and the extract phase is allowed to ...
