Tips and Techniques
• Analyze samples immediately. Do not preserve for later analysis.
• For more accurate results, determine a reagent blank value for each new lot of reagent. Follow the procedure using deionized
water in place of the sample. Subtract the reagent blank value from the final results or perform a reagent blank adjust
instrument manual for more information on Running a Reagent Blank.
• If the sample temporarily turns yellow after reagent addition, dilute a fresh sample. Repeat the test. A slight loss of iodine may
occur due to the dilution. Apply the appropriate dilution factor. See Section 2.7 Sample Dilution on page 21.
• Wipe the outside of sample cells before each insertion into the instrument cell holder. Use a damp towel followed by a dry one to
remove fingerprints or other marks.
