Abstract
CO2 concentration in aqueous samples was derived from determination of the CO2 content in the gas phase at equilibrium with the liquid by ga s chromatography. This technique was used to measure low dissolved CO2 concentrations, down to 10(-6) mol/L, and CO2 solubility in microbial culture media The method gave results with an accuracy within 10%, an d appeared thus as reliable and sensitive. It could be considered as a valuable tool to study CO2 mass transfer in bio-processes.
