The dynamically growing and falling drops formed at the end of a silanized silica capillary tube served as the reactors for a chromogenic reaction and windowless optical cells as well. The optimum analytical conditions have been established. The sensor showed a linear response in the measuring range from 1.0×10 -4 to 5.0×10 -3 mg/mL thiamine, and with a detection limit of 8.0×10 -4 mg/mL. Besides its high sensitivity, the sensor permits a simple, fast, and inexpensive measurement with only micro-quantities reagent consumption.展开更多
