A simple colorimeter based on microcontrollers to detect food dyes

A hands-on laboratory experiment that teaches quantitative analysis with color. You learn to match spectra, prepare standard solutions, and use colorimetry to measure unknown concentrations, including chlorine in water.

John R. Amend and Dale A. Hammond

A study on colorimetric detection of metal ions using polymers with terpyridine groups. It shows how engineered materials change color to identify iron, cobalt, copper, and tin in water.

Miriam Trigo-López, Asunción Muñoz, Saturnino Ibeas and others

A technical report on the colorimetry used in television and display systems. It covers the color elements and standards behind accurate color reproduction on screens.

ITU-R

A master thesis on digitizing colorimetric measurements with a smartphone. It explores how mobile cameras can turn color into reliable quantitative data for analysis.

Manuel Agudo Acemel

A laboratory experiment for determining manganese in steel by colorimetry. It explains light absorption principles and the step-by-step method to measure concentration accurately.
