titration Definition

ti·tra·tion (tī trās̸hən)

noun

Chem., Physiol. the process of finding out how much of a certain substance is contained in a known volume of a solution by measuring volumetrically how much of a standard solution is required to produce a given reaction

Etymology: < titrate + -ion

titration Usage Examples

Preposition: of

  • dose: Titration of the dose in response to service user's requirement rather than the absolute levels of dose is essential.
  • acid: That lack of a steep bit means that it is difficult to do a titration of a weak acid against a weak base.

Converse of object

  • require: The use of EXUBERA in patients requiring dose titrations of less than 1 mg is not recommended ( see section 4.4 ).
  • do: That lack of a steep bit means that it is difficult to do a titration of a weak acid against a weak base.
  • include: The coverage is comprehensive and includes pH titrations, speciation of acids and bases, tutorials and quizes.

Adjective modifier

  • potentiometric: The chloride ion concentration was determined by potentiometric titration with a silver nitrate solution.
  • acid-base: Also shows how to calculate pH changes during simple acid-base titrations.
  • rapid: Too rapid titration may be associated with an increased incidence of adverse events.
  • careful: Side effects may be largely avoided by the indicated careful titration of dosage.
  • slow: The risk of unwanted effects can be reduced by slow dose titration.

Modifies a noun

  • calorimetry: It will also include the analysis of dynamic light scattering, isothermal titration calorimetry, and concepts for global analysis.
  • curve: Change in net charge of an amino acid can be seen clearly in a titration curve for an amino acid.
  • calculation: Titrations calculations were done by slotting numbers into a formula.
  • experiment: It may be helpful to think of a titration experiment in more human terms.
  • method: It is probably best to make a new solution each day with the water titration method.

Noun used with modifier

  • redox: The topics reviewed are: redox reactions, Hess's Law, balancing ion electron half equations, redox titrations and electrolysis.
  • pH: During the pH titration experiments we followed the changes in peak position, for example ( Fig.
  • dose: Dose titration: The starting dose is 1.5 mg twice a day.
  • base: The pH curve for the strong acid - weak base titration shows that phenolphthalein is not a suitable indicator but methyl orange is fine.
  • dosage: Drug levels should be measured to confirm reasonable adherence to treatment and give some idea of the leeway for further dosage titration.
