FISHER ENDS CONTROVERSY VS. ATOMIC ABSORPTION WITH
EMISSION LOW-COST
MODEL EEL-140 Zinc in a flame at 2 0 0 0 ° K has seven light-emitting atoms but a thousand million million (10 1 5 ) light-absorbing atoms. The amount of light absorbed is proportional to the concentration of the absorbing element. This sensitivity alone demonstrates the superiority of atomic absorption spectrometry over emission methods for trace metal analyses. Consider, too, these facts about the new Model EEL-140 Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer distributed by Fisher Scientific. · Simple to operate. · Determinations can be made in less than 15 seconds. · 100 determinations an hour of the same element are easy, with precision better than 1 % of the amount present. · Changing to another element can take less than 3 0 seconds. · Direct reading scale. · Compact, self-contained. At $ 2 , 8 5 0 , not including hollow cathode tubes, the Model EEL-140 costs far less than comparable instruments. This brings it within reach of analysts in agriculture, oil refining, quality control, mining, geology, clinical chemistry, forensic medicine and industrial toxicology.

Why poil our pH js smart desi I hi1· now L \ N glass e l e c t r o d e has been d i o p p e d on ils tip 25,000 times— just as it might if you let it fall into a beaker. It still works with full accuracy a n d s e n s i t i v i t y . No b r e a k a g e . W e ' v e strengthened it at a critical point, where most electrodes are fragile. Rugged e l e c t r o d e design is w h a t y o u ' d expect f r o m a c o m p a n y that's been making pH-sensitive glass electrodes for 30 years—longer than anyone now in business. We're continually improving pH glass formulations and technology. Our electrodes have excellent linearity in the presence of Na and Κ ions. Their gen erously packed internal elements allow exceptional stability and long life over a w i d e range of solution temperatures. They're equipped with the glass-elec trode connectors now popular in the lab pH field. Both measuring and reference elec trodes have exactly the same internal element construction, so that they de velop identical half-cell potentials no matter how the temperature changes. This balanced configuration prevents drift and uncertainty. To avoid uncertainty, specify L&N electrodes. Talk to y o u r lab supply dealer about them and their use w i t h other pH meters. Or let us send you the details and the name of the L&N lab oratory pH dealer nearest you. W r i t e : Leeds & Northrup, 4906 Stenton Ave., Philadelphia, Pa. 19144.

Summatic integrator T h e S u m m a t i c I n t e g r a t o r is a n e w tool to a u t o m a t i c a l l y c o m pute and present on printed tape, in d i g i t a l f o r m , p e a k areas w h i c h a r e a f u n c t i o n of m a s s , c o n c e n t r a t i o n or s t r u c t u r e .
The Summatic Integrator i n c o r p o rates small peak accuracy, wide dynamic range and low cost. These three desirable requirements have not been available in competitively priced integrators until now. Nester/ Faust's Summatic assures you ot the following : I A u t o m a t i c count of each peak at a rate which gives approximately the same high statistical relia bility—regardless of peak height up to a maximum signal of one volt. II Proven and reliable voltage to frequency conversion t e c h n i q u e to convert the input signal to a number of pulses that is pro portional to the area. This t e c h nique in conjunction with a novel Auto-Ranging* device gives good statistics on small peaks (±3% on 100μν p e a k s of 3 seconds duration,) and a dynam ic range of 0 to 1 volt DC auto matically. Precision on larger peaks is about --0.7% for 20 mv peaks 10 seconds long. Ill Low cost since the S u m m a t i c ' s Auto-Ranger allows the use of a narrow range 0 to 1 mv stabilized amplifier, a narrow range Oto 100 cps voltage to frequency c o n verter, and a fast mechanical counter-printer that does not re quire provision for memory. The A u t o - R a n g i n g circuit attenuates the input signal by a factor of ten at 3 decades of signal amplitude f 1 , 10 and 100 mvj and directs the output from the converter to the next higher counting wheel in the counter-printer.

Sample: 1 microliter toluene con taining 1 microgram each of cholesterol and cholestan-3-one. COMMENTS: Figure 1—The highly sensitive cholesterol is dehydrated and seen as a tailing peak. The cholestan-3-one seen much later as a severely tailing peak. Fig ure 2—Chromosorb W gives two distinct peaks with no tailing, no loss. Figure 3— Part of the cholesterol is lost, as indicated by the smaller peak. High-performance J-M Chromosorb G, AW-DMCS gives results comparable to Chromosorb W. These high-performance grades have been developed to provide a support with the highest inertness. They
have the advantage of not requiring long periods of conditioning. These grades sup plement present acid washed, dimethyldichlorosilane (AW-DMCS) Chromosorb grades. AVAILABILITY: High-performanceJ-M Chrom osorb W and G, AW-DMCS grades are avail able in 80/100 and 100/120 mesh frac tions.
