"Determination of a non-ionic surfactant"



-----

 

Q. I am interested in a method for determining the concentration of a non-ionic a surfactant in water. I am familiar with the CTAS method, but have heard of a spectroscopic method requiring no sample preparation in the mid to high 200 nm range. Are you familiar with such a method?
