る。2. Description of the Related Art In various researches and industrial fields, there is a demand for higher sensitivity in the analysis of ultra-trace amounts of components in samples. When the sensitivity of the analyzer is not sufficient for the concentration of the component to be analyzed in the sample, the sensitivity can be improved by concentrating the component. As one of the concentration methods, there is a method of adsorbing the component to a granular substance such as an ion exchange resin and concentrating it. After the component is adsorbed and concentrated on the particulate substance to develop color, or the component is colored and the colored component is adsorbed and concentrated on the granular substance, the granular substance layer is separated from the solution phase, and the absorbance of the granular substance phase is determined. A method for quantifying the component by direct measurement has been reported (Taranta (T
alanta) Vol. 32, No. 5, 345-352, 195
8). This method has a high concentration factor and can perform very sensitive analysis. Further, when the amount of the colored particulate matter is the same, the sensitivity can be improved by filling the measuring cell so that the optical path length is long and the optical path cross-sectional area is small.

不足するという欠点を有していた。However, when the optical path length is made long and the optical path cross-sectional area is made small, the amount of light reaching the detector is reduced due to scattering of the particulate matter itself, and the measurement accuracy is lowered. It may even be difficult to measure the absorbance with a commercially available absorptiometer as shown. In measuring the absorbance of a component adsorbed on a granular substance, the degree of scattering changes depending on the filling state of the granular substance, so a method using a coloring component is used separately from the maximum absorption wavelength of the coloring component to correct the filling state. The conventional absorptiometer of FIG. 4 includes a white light source 2, a lens 4, a monochromator 53, and a beam splitter 1.

The reference holder 22 and the photodetectors 26 and 27 are provided, and the white light emitted from the white light source 2 is dispersed by the monochromator 53 and the wavelength is scanned, whereby the absorbance is measured at the above-mentioned two wavelengths. Has become. Monochromator 5
Since 3 is built in, the device becomes large and it is difficult to make it portable, and there is a drawback that the amount of detected light is insufficient in the measurement of a sample that has weak intensity per wavelength and large extinction due to scattering. Was there.
