Abstract
We describe here a novel method using photoactivated fluorescence for the detection of trichloroethylene (TCE). The approach involves photoa ctivation by uv irradiation of TCE in the presence of a photoactivator , diphenylamine, subsequent excitation of the photoproduct complex, an d detection of the luminescent photoproduct. The photoproduct exhibits new absorption fluorescent bands. Conventional fixed-wavelength excit ation and synchronous luminescence (SL) are used for detection.
