Versatile Flow Injection System for Spectrophotometric Determination of Silicon in Agronomic Samples

Abstract: A versatile flow injection system for spectrophotometric determination of silicon (Si) in agronomic samples is proposed. For plant and slag analysis (1.0-10.0 mg L 21 Si), the method involves monitoring the yellowish molybdosilicic acid at 410 nm. Soil, fertilizer, water, and sugarcane juice analysis (0.5-5.0 mg L 21 Si) were accomplished by adding a reducing agent, and the molybdenum blue compound that formed was monitored at 735 nm. Flexibility of the method allows determination in a variety of matrices invo… Show more

“…C and N concentrations were determined by elemental analysis (NA 1500 Series 2; Carlo-Erba, Stanford, CA, USA). Ca, P and K concentrations were determined by sulphuric acid/hydrogen peroxide digestion, followed by ammonium molybdate/ascorbic acid colorimetric determination using flow injection analysis (FIAstar spectrophotometer 5023; Tecator, H€ oganas, Sweden) for P, and flame atomic absorbance spectrometry (Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer Analyst 100; Perkin Elmer, Waltham, MA, USA) for Ca and K. Silica concentrations were assessed using an alkaline sodium hydroxide/hydrogen peroxide digest followed by determination of concentrations using flow injection analysis (Carneiro et al, 2007). Root lignin and lignin-like substances were assessed using a sulphuric acid digestion method with the remaining oven-dried, acid-insoluble residue operationally defined as the root lignin and lignin-like fraction (Woodin et al, 2009).…”

“…Leaf sample preparation for silicon analysis by FIA Samples were prepared for silicon (Si) analysis as described by Carneiro et al (2007). Briefly, dried ground leaf (0.02 g) was weighed into polyethylene centrifuge tubes and 0.6 ml of hydrogen peroxide and 1.5 ml of 50% sodium hydroxide were added.…”
