title: Simultaneous determination of nitrate and nitrite in saliva and foodstuffs by non-suppressed ion chromatography with bulk acoustic wave detector.
abstract: In the present paper, nitrate and nitrite in foodstuffs and saliva were simultaneously determined using a non-suppressed ion chromatography (IC) method with a bulk acoustic wave sensor (BAW) as detector, and 1.5 mmol/L potassium hydrogenphthalate (KHP) as mobile phase. The IC-BAW method is simple, rapid and accurate. The determination limits for nitrite and nitrate are 0.20 and 0.30 mg/L, respectively. The IC-BAW is comparable and agrees with the conventional spectrophotometric method for nitrite and nitrate determination.
