Flow injection: A new approach in analysis
Abstract
The manual handling of solutions (known as “beaker chemistry”) remains
the Achilles Heel of modern analytical instrumentation. It is currentlybeing
replaced by flow injection analysis (FIA), which is computer compatible and
allows automated handling of sample and reagent solutions with a strict control
of reaction conditions. The flow injection analysis (FIA) was preceded by the
success of segmented flow analysis,mainly in clinical and environmental analysis.
This advance, as well as the development of continuous monitors for process
control and environmental monitors, ensured the success of the FIA methodology.
