M. Pravda et al., A DAMPING SYSTEM FOR SYRINGE PUMPS USED FOR MICRODIALYSIS WITH ON LINE ELECTROCHEMICAL DETECTION, Analytical chemistry, 68(14), 1996, pp. 2447-2450
A syringe pump damping system for microdialysis, coupled on-line with
amperometric detection, was developed, The damping system consisted of
an air bubble and a fused silica capillary. A bubble volume of 20 mu
L and a 15 cm capillary, 50 mu m i.d., were found to be optimal for fl
ow rates between 1 and 5 mu L min(-1). Enhancements of detection limit
by 2 orders of magnitude were obtained with this experimental setup.
