The choice of the electrolyte composition has taken account: the mobility of the anion buffer and of the solutes;the low absorbance of the buffer in 210 nm;high base line stability and analysis time. The electrolyte optimized has consisted of 100 mmol.L–1 TRIS/HCl buffer and 0.15 mmol.L–1 CTAB at pH 8.2. The proposed method was applied successfully in the analysis of nitrite and nitrate in samples from urban stream in the absence of usual sample pretreatment.展开更多
