T. Perezruiz et al., FLOW-INJECTION CHEMILUMINOMETRIC DETERMINATION OF ASCORBIC-ACID BASEDON ITS SENSITIZED PHOTOOXIDATION, Analytica chimica acta, 308(1-3), 1995, pp. 299-307
The chemiluminescent reaction, in alkaline solution, of lucigenin with
the products from the photooxidation of ascorbic acid sensitized by t
oluidine blue has been studied. A flow-injection configuration is prop
osed for the determination of ascorbic acid over a concentration range
of 1x10(-9)-3 x 10(-4) M with a throughput of 80 samples/h. The metho
d has been used for the simple and rapid determination of ascorbic aci
d in pharmaceuticals, fruit juices, soft drinks and blood serum.
