Abstract: | A one-shot multisensor based on ionophore-chromoionophore chemistry for optical monitoring of potassium, magnesium and hardness in water is presented. The analytical procedure uses a black and white non-cooled CCD camera for image acquisition of the one-shot multisensor after reaction, followed by data treatment for quantitation using the grey value pixel average from a defined region of interest from each sensing area to build the analytical parameter 1 − α. In optimised experimental conditions, the procedure shows a large linear range, up to 6 orders using the linearised model and good detection limits: 9.92 × 10−5 mM, 1.86 × 10−3 mM and 1.30 × 10−2 mg L−1 of CaCO3 for potassium, magnesium and hardness, respectively. This analysis system exhibits good precision in terms of relative standard deviation (RSD%) from 2.3 to 3.8 for potassium, from 5.0 to 6.8 for magnesium and from 5.4 to 5.9 for hardness. The trueness of this multisensor procedure was demonstrated comparing it with results obtained by a DAD spectrophotometer used as a reference. Finally, it was satisfactorily applied to the analysis of these analytes in miscellaneous samples, such as water and beverage samples from different origins, validating the results against atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) as the reference procedure. |
