Division 2.5 Calculation of results

United Kingdom

The amount of anionic surfactant (MBAS) in the sample is read from the calibration curve (2.4). The MBAS content of the sample is given by:

\frac{mg MBAS \times 1000}{V} = MBAS mg ∕ l

where: V = ml volume of the sample used.

Express the results as sodium dodecylbenzene sulphonate (MW 348).
