ISO 15681-1:2003(E)
Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 15681-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 147, Water quality, Subcommittee SC 2, Physical,
chemical and biochemical methods.
ISO 15681 consists of the following parts, under the general title Water quality — Determination of
orthophosphate and total phosphorus contents by flow analysis (FIA and CFA):
 Part 1: Method by flow injection analysis (FIA)
 Part 2: Method by continuous flow analysis (CFA)

ISO 15681-1:2003(E)
Introduction
Methods of determining water quality using flow analysis automated wet chemical procedures, and are
particularly suitable for the processing of many analytes in water in large sample series at a high analysis
frequency.
[1], [2] [3]
Analysis can be performed by flow injection analysis (FIA) or continuous flow analysis (CFA) . Both
methods share the feature of an automatic dosage of the sample into a flow system (manifold) where the
analyte in the sample reacts with the reagent solutions on its way through the manifold. The sample
preparation may be integrated in the manifold. The amount of reaction product is measured in a flow detector
(e.g. flow photometer). This part of ISO 15681 describes the FIA method.
The user should be aware that particular problems could require the specification of additional marginal
conditions.
