Abstract | Flow analysis methodologies began in the 1950s. Flow injection methodologies originated in the 1970s. This reviewfocuses on FIA related developments.Early injection analysis reports included the Nagy, Feher, and Pungor system in which they injected an electroactivesample into an electrolyte stream, and used a magnetic stirrer to ensure complete mixing. White and Fitzgerald injected a sampleover a 20 sec. period into a carrier reagent stream. Sarbeck, St. John, and Winefordner injected a microsample into a carrierstream for introduction into atomic spectrometers. Bergmeyer and Hagen injected samples into a circulating enzymatic reagentstream, obtaining step signals. Stewart, Beecher, and Hare injected discrete samples into a carrier stream, using a long mixingcoil to ensure complete chemical reaction. Ruzicka and Hansen injected samples into a rapidly flowing carrier stream, without theneed for steady-state reaction/reading, being characterized by controlled dispersion and reproducible timing. They termed thisFlow Injection Analysis. New generations include sequential injection analysis and lab-on-valve.Japanese researchers were early adopters of FIA technology, and formed the Japanese Association for Flow InjectionAnalysis (JAFIA) and the Journal of Flow Injection Analysis (JFIA).Two conferences are devoted to flow analysis methodologies: the International Conference on Flow Analysis (FA) andthe International Conference on Flow Injection Analysis (ICFIA).These developments are reviewed in detail. |
