3. INTRODUCTION
COLORIMETER
• Colorimeter is instrument which is used in the
measurement of the luminious intensity of
light.
• Invented by Louis Jules Duboscq in 1870.
4. PRINCIPLE
COLORIMETER
• Involves the quantitative estimation of colors.
• The difference in color intensity results in the
difference in the absorption of light.
• The intensity of color is directly proportional
to the concentration of the compound being
measured.
5. CONTD.
• The amount of light absorbed or transmitted by
a colored solution is in accordance with two
laws:
• Beer’s law
• Lambert’s law
8. Derivation of the Formula
• Combining the two laws
AαCxL
OR A=KxCxL
• Let AT=absorbance of the test solution
• CT=concentration of the test solution
• AS=absorbance of the standard solution
• CS=concentration of the standard solution

INSTRUMENTATION
14. Complementary filters for coloured solutions.
The selected filters has the color to the complementary to that of
the color of unknown solution
15. • Cuvette are rectangular cell , square cell or
circular one
• Made up of optical glass for visible wavelength.
• Common one is square,rectangular
to avoid refraction artefacts.
• dimension of cuvette is 1cm.
Cuvette(sample holder)
17. • For estimation of biochemical samples , like plasma, serum,
cerebrospinal fluid (csf ) , urine.
• Ex. Determination of blood glucose, blood urea, serum
creatinine, serum proteins, serum cholesterol, serum inorganic
phosphate, urine creatinine & glucose in CSF, etc.
• They are used by the food industry and by manufacturers of
paints and textiles.
APPLICATION OF COLORIMETRIC
ASSAY
19. Introduction
• compounds absorb light radiation of a specific wavelength.
• the amount of light radiation absorbed by a sample is
measured.
• The light absorption is directly related to the concentration of
the compound in the sample.
• As Concentration increases, light Absorption increases,
linearly, As Concentration increases, light Transmission
decreases, exponentially.
19
21. Beer-Lambert law
• Light Absorbance: (A) = log (I0 / I)= ƐLC
• Light Transmission (T) = I/I0 = 10-ƐCL
• I0: Light Intensity entering a sample
• I: Light Intensity exiting a sample
• C: The concentration of analyte in sample
• L: The length of the light path in glass sample cuvette
• Ɛ: a constant for a particular solution and wave length

24. Parts of spectrophotometer
• Monochromator : Accepts polychromatic input light from
a lamp and outputs monochromatic light.
24
25. Parts of spectrophotometer
• Dispersion devices: A special plate with hundreds
of parallel grooved lines.
• The grooved lines act to separate the white light into
the visible light spectrum.
25
The more lines
the smaller
the wavelength
resolution.
26. Parts of spectrophotometer
• Focusing devices: Combinations of lenses, slits,
and mirrors.
• relay and focus light through the instrument.
26
27. • Cuvettes: designed to hold samples for spectroscopic
experiments. made of Plastic, glass or optical grade
quartz
• should be as clear as possible, without impurities that
might affect a spectroscopic reading.
27
28. Parts of spectrophotometer
• Detectors: Convert radiant energy (photons) into an
electrical signal.
The photocell and phototube are the simplest
photodetectors, producing current proportional to the
intensity of the light striking Them .

30. Applications
− Measure the absorption of the unknown, and from the
standard plot, read the related concentration

31. Applications
2. Chemical kinetics
• Kinetics of reaction can also be studied using
UV spectroscopy. The UV radiation is passed through
the reaction cell and the absorbance changes can be
observed.

33. PRINCIPLES
Technique involves
• - Creating gas phase ions from the analyte atoms or
molecules
• - Separating the ions according to their mass-to-charge
ratio (m/z)
• - Measuring the abundance of the ions
34. PRINCIPLES
Technique can be used for
• - Qualitative and quantitative analysis
• - Providing information about the mass of atoms and
molecules
• - Molecular structure determination (organic & inorganic)
• - Identification and characterization of materials
35. PRINCIPLES
• - Separates gas phase ionized atoms, molecules, and fragments
of molecules
• - Separation is based on the difference in mass-to-charge ratio
(m/z)
• m = unified atomic mass units (u)
• 1 dalton (Da) = 1 u = 1.665402 x 10-27 kg
• z = charge on the ion (may be positive or negative)
36. PRINCIPLES
• - Analyte molecule can undergo electron ionization
• M + e- → M●+ + 2e-
• - M●+ is the ionized analyte molecule called molecular
ion
• - Radical cation is formed by the loss of one electron
• - Permits easy determination of molecular weight of
analyte
