Turbidimetric analysis. An analytical method based on the measurement of the attenuation of transmitted light by a solution containing a finely divided precipitate. There is a direct relationship between the amount of light attenuated and the amount of material in suspension. Either visual comparison with known standards or photoelectric detection is used to measure the amount of light transmitted by the turbid solutions... The illustration is a schematic diagram of a simple turbidimeter. 3, record 1, English, - turbidimeter
