W. Zeng et al., INFORMATION EXTRACTION ON EFFICIENT PURIFICATION OF ORGANIC-REAGENTS BY USING THE BRANCH-AND-BOUND ALGORITHM, Analytica chimica acta, 280(1), 1993, pp. 173-177
Mixtures with a known range of possibly present species can be simulta
neously analysed qualitatively and quantitatively by using the branch
and bound algorithm. The computation time is much less than in the enu
meration procedure and there is no risk of missing the real combinatio
n of co-existing components in the sample. Nitrophenol mixtures were a
nalysed satisfactorily.
