Abstract: Process for metering lead in a sample of original water, in which is placed a sample of the water of which at least a substantial portion of the colloidal and organic material is passed in solution (sample of pretreated water), having: a first stage, starting from a sample of pretreated water with an adjusted pH, the lead is concentrated and the other parasitic ions are at least partially eliminated to obtain a sample of water that is concentrated with lead and substantially lacking in other parasitic ions (sample of lead-concentrated water); and a second stage in which, starting from the sample of lead-concentrated water, the sample of lead-concentrated water is mixed with a selective, lead-sensitive fluorescent probe whose fluorescence intensity/lead metering function is known; then, the thus produced water/fluorescent probe mixture is excited by the light, and the fluorescence intensity of the thus excited water/fluorescent probe mixture is collected optically; finally, starting from the thus detected fluo

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for producing an insulated electrode comprising a conductive material coated with an electrically insulating material. The method includes at least the following steps of: forming a mold in an electrically insulating material, the mold including at least one channel, the mold being adapted to confine a conductive material, introducing the conductive material in a liquid state into the channel of the mold, the conductive material having a melting point that is lower than the melting point of the electrically insulating material.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cap for closing the filling pipe of a fuel tank in a motor vehicle, of the kind comprising a rotatable locking mechanism which cooperates with a complementary part formed on the end of the pipe. The cap comprises at least two stops disposed axially opposite one another between which a portion of a radial collar formed on the end of the pipe is received when the cap is in the closed position. The body of the cap further comprises two parts assembled by elastic engagement, each of which comprises one of said two axial stops.
