T. Perezruiz et al., FLOW-INJECTION SPECTROFLUOROMETRIC DETERMINATION OF OXALATE BASED ON ITS ENHANCING EFFECT ON THE OXIDATION OF RHODAMINE-B BY DICHROMATE, Analyst, 120(8), 1995, pp. 2111-2114
A flow injection configuration for the spectrofluorimetric determinati
on of oxalate is proposed. The procedure is based on the enhancing eff
ect of oxalate on the oxidation of Rhodamine B by dichromate. The prop
osed method is simple, inexpensive, sensitive and suitable for concent
rations of oxalate between 1.76 and 88 mu g ml(-1). The applicability
of the method was demonstrated by the determination of oxalate in food
and urine Samples.
