A simple, inexpensive and reagent-less colorimetric micro flow analysis (microFA) system was implemented in a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) micro fluidic manifold. A T-shaped micro channel on a PMMA chip was fabricated by laser ablation and topped with molded polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). The fabricated microFA system was integrated with the optical components as detector and applied to the determination of iron in water samples. It is based on the measurement of Fe(III)-nitroso-R salt complex at 720 nm formed by the reaction between Fe(III) and nitroso-R salt in an acetate buffer solution pH 5. The proposed microFA consumed very small amount of reagent and sample, it released waste of less than 2.0 mL h(-1). The relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) was less than 2% (n=11) with the recovery of 98.7+/-0.12 (n=5). The linear range for the determination of iron in water samples was over the range of 0.05-4.0 microg mL(-1) with a correlation coefficient (r(2)) of 0.9994. The limit of detection (3sigma) and limit of quantitation (10sigma) were 0.021 microg mL(-1) and 0.081 microg mL(-1), respectively with a sample throughput of 40 h(-1).
