Abstract
Abstract A method for the rapid analysis of a cation contained in a liquid, which comprises filtering a liquid sample through a cation exchange filter paper having a high rate of ion exchange, which was made from fibers having cation exchange functional groups, thus collecting substantially the entire amount of the cation contained in said liquid sample in the top surface layer of said filter paper, and analyzing the cation-loaded filter paper as such or the eluate obtained by elution of the cation to be analyzed from said cation-loaded filter paper, to determine the cation.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
92 words
A method for the rapid analysis of a cation contained in a liquid, which comprises filtering a liquid sample through a cation exchange filter paper having a high rate of ion exchange, which is composed of fibers having cation exchange functional groups, thus collecting in the top surface layer of said filter paper substantially the entire amount of the cation contained in said liquid sample, and analyzing the cation-loaded filter paper as such or the eluate obtained by elution of the objective cation from said cation-loaded filter paper to determine the cation.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
92 words
