Details on test conditions:
TEST SYSTEM
- Type, material and volume of test flasks, other equipment used: stoppered glass flasks
- Sterilisation method: filtration through a 0.2 μm membrane filter
- Lighting: The solutions were shielded from light whilst maintained at the test temperature.
- Measures taken to avoid photolytic effects: The solutions were shielded from light whilst maintained at the test temperature.
- Measures to exclude oxygen: ultrasonication and degassing with nitrogen
- If no traps were used, is the test system closed/open : closed
- Is there any indication of the test material adsorbing to the walls of the test apparatus? No

Test performance:
The linearity of the detector response with respect to concentration was assessed for all three sample pH matrices over the nominal concentration range of 0 to 400 mg/l. These were satisfactory with a correlation coefficient of 1.000 being obtained in each case.
