✦ Synopsis

Using current meters to estimate flows in fast mountain streams is difficult and inaccurate. The salt dilution method offers an easier and more accurate alternative. The method has been used for many years but is time consuming and messy because of the need to mix chemical solutions and measure chemical concentrations in the field. A computer program has been developed which uses a laptop computer to calculate the mixing length and the mass of salt needed. The program controls the conductivity measurements and calculates the streamflow directly in the field. The development of this program is described and examples are presented of the application of the method in the Rocky Mountains of Alberta and British Columbia.

We have used the bicinchoninic acid reagent developed by Pierce Chemical Co. to measure proteins in a simple flow injection analyzer. The sensitivity is comparable to that of the Lowry method and no pipetting of reagents is needed. Results are obtained in less than 1 min and samples may be run at a

Flow injection analysis with amperometric detection is used for quantitating nucleic acids down to picogram level. The procedure relies on the oxidation of the bound guanine moiety at the untreated carbon paste detector, and does not require any prior derivatization or hydrolysis reactions. The resp
