Identifying and quantifying natural and man-made colored dissolved
organic matter components are crucial to understanding water quality, and they require
collecting both the fluorescence and absorbance spectra of the sample. The Aqualog
instrument from Horiba Scientific’s Molecular and Micro Analysis Div. simultaneously
measures the absorbance spectra and fluorescence excitation-emission matrices of
colored dissolved organic matter in water 100 times faster than previous fluorescence
methods could. The device features a 150-W xenon lamp, a double excitation monochromator
for good stray light rejection, a photodiode for absorbance spectra and a thermoelectrically
cooled CCD for collection of rapid emission spectra. It comes with software and
a full suite of NIST-traceable validation tests.
