Introduction
• Photometry is the most common analytical
technique used in the biochemical laboratory.
It is designed to measure the intensity of a
beam of light.
• Photometric principles are applied to the
several kinds of analytical techniques:(a) where absorbed or transmitted light is measured:
• Colorimetry
• Spectrophotometry
• Atomic absorption, and
• Turbidometry
(b) where emitted light is measured:
• Flame photometry

Introduction (cont.)
• The components of most photoelectric
colorimeters are basically the same and the
basic method of operation is also similar for
all the instruments.
• In analytical chemistry, Colorimetry is a
technique “used to determine the
concentration of colored compounds
(analytes) in sample solution” at visible
spectrum of light (400 – 700 nm).
![Page 5: colorimetry spectrophotometry by dr.Tasnim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/58714bab1a28ab55588b6b23/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Properties of Light
Light is the visible spectrum of electromagnetic radiation,emitted in the form of waves of different wave lengths ranging from380nm to 750nm.

Principle of PhotometrySubstance to be measured by photometry must be
colored to begin with or can be made to produce
color derivatives by using certain reagents and
reactions.
Intensity of colour produced is propotional to the
concentration of the colour producing subs.present
in solution.
Colored subs.absorbs light of a particular wave
length and the extent of light absorption depends on
the conc .of color producing subs.in solution.
![Page 9: colorimetry spectrophotometry by dr.Tasnim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/58714bab1a28ab55588b6b23/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Principle (con.)……
A characteristic wavelength of absorption spectrum
is isolated from light passing it through filter
monochromator
Solution with colored subs. is kept in a cuvet&
allowed the subs. to absorb light.
Degree of light absorption by a solute of unknown
conc. Is propotional to degree of light absorption
by same solute in a solution of known conc.
Subs.of unknown conc. is measured by comparing
with same subs .in another solu. Of known conc.
![Page 10: colorimetry spectrophotometry by dr.Tasnim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/58714bab1a28ab55588b6b23/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Colorimetry
Principle
.Colored solutions have the property of
absorbing certain wavelength of light
when a monochromatic light is passed
through them.
.The amount of light absorbed or
transmitted by a colored solution is in
accordance with two laws:
Beer’s law
Lambert’s law
![Page 11: colorimetry spectrophotometry by dr.Tasnim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/58714bab1a28ab55588b6b23/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Beer’s law :
This law states that,the intensity of
transmitted light decreases exponentially
with the increase in concentration of
colored substance in the solution.
i.e. the amount of light absorbed by a
colored solution is directly proportional to
the conc. Of substance in the solution.
![Page 12: colorimetry spectrophotometry by dr.Tasnim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/58714bab1a28ab55588b6b23/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Lambert’s law :
This law states that,the intensity of
transmitted light decreases exponentially
with increase in length of light pathway.
(diameter of the cuvette)
i.e. the amount of light absorbed by a colored
solution is directly propotional to the length
of light path.
![Page 14: colorimetry spectrophotometry by dr.Tasnim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/58714bab1a28ab55588b6b23/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Transmittance
Transmittance: It is the ratio of intensity of
transmitted light (It) to the intensity of incident
light (lo) across a solution. It is expressed as %
Transmittance (T) = It/ 1o
Transmittance is inversely and logarithmically
proportional to the concentration.i.e Tα log1/C.
![Page 15: colorimetry spectrophotometry by dr.Tasnim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/58714bab1a28ab55588b6b23/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Absorbance
• Optical density: it is the amount of light
absorbed by the colored substance. OD
may be defined as the logarithmic ratio
of incident light to that of transmitted
light.
• So A = log ( I/T ) ;= log10 ( 100/T); = 2 -
log10T
Absorbace is directly and linearly
propotional to con.

Standard (calibration curve)
• The standard curve is prepared to check
whether the method of assaying a particular
substance follows Beer’s Law, i.e. whether the
absorbance of the substance increases in a
linear way with its concentration.
• The standard curve is constructed by plotting
a vertical axis (y – axis, ordinate) for optical
densities (absorbance) and a horizontal axis
(x – axis, abscissa) the concentration of
standard solution.
• The concentration of the test/unknown can be
measured from the graph (standard curve).

Components of Colorimetry
1. Light source:The light source is usually a tungten lamp, for wavelength in the visible range (320 – 700nm) and a deutarium or hydrogen lamps for ultraviolet light (below 350nm).
a) Tungsten lamp Visible range
b) Deutarium/hydrogen lamp (preferred) UV Rays
c) Black body radiators (Nerst glower) Infrared radiations
![Page 30: colorimetry spectrophotometry by dr.Tasnim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/58714bab1a28ab55588b6b23/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Monochromators/Filters
• This device used for spectral isolation(light of
single wavelength)
• this means of selecting a sufficiently narrow
wave band.
Filter SBW about 50nm (wide band pass
monochromator)
Prism SBW is 5-10 or <5nm (narrow
band pass monochromator)
Diffraction grating SBW is 15-20nm.
![Page 31: colorimetry spectrophotometry by dr.Tasnim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/58714bab1a28ab55588b6b23/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Monochromators
• Early colorimeters used Absorption filters (i.e. glass
filter, Gelatin filter) that transmitted a wide segment of
spectrum (50nm or more).
• Newer instrument use Interface filters that consist of
thin layer of magnesium fluoride crystals with a
semitransparent coating of silver on each side.
• Monochromator consists of:
– Entrance slit
– Absorption/ interface filter and
– Prisms or diffraction grating for wavelength selection
– Exit slit

Sample Holder/ Cuvette
• Cuvettes are rectangular cell , square cell or
circular one.
• Made up of optical glass for visible wavelength
(quartz or fused silica for UV).
• Common one is square, rectangular to avoid
refraction artifacts.
• Optical path (length) of cuvette is always1cm.
• Capacity may be 3ml/2ml/1ml depending upon
the thickness of the wall of the cuvette.
• For accurate and precise reading cuvette must be
transparent, clean, devoid of any scratches and
there should be no bubble adhering to the inner
surface of the filled cuvette.

Principle of Spectrophotometer
– Solutes in a solution show characteristic absorption
spectrum in UV or visible or infrared region of
electromagnetic radiation.
– Characteristic absorption spectrum can be
isolated by passing the electromagnetic
radiation through a prism monochromator.
– Degree of absorption of electromagnetic
radiation depends on the condensation of solute
in solution.
