Ionianalyysiä
Ionianalyysiä, often translated as "ion analysis," refers to the process of identifying and quantifying the ions present in a sample. This is a fundamental technique in chemistry with applications across various fields, including environmental monitoring, medical diagnostics, food safety, and industrial process control. The primary goal of ion analysis is to determine the concentration or presence of specific charged chemical species, such as metal cations (e.g., sodium, potassium, calcium) and anions (e.g., chloride, sulfate, nitrate).
Several analytical techniques are employed for ion analysis. Ion chromatography (IC) is a widely used method
