Abstract

A method for acetate determination using IC separation and FI post-column spectrophotometric detection based on the La(OH)3-I2 reaction has been developed. The chromatographic conditions (eluants, flow-rates, sensitivity, and so on) and FI variables (length of coils, injection volume, pH, ... ) were optimized. Linearity was observed over the concentration range 0 to 1 gl-1 with HAc as standard (r = 0.9916) and a detection limit of 0.1 g AcH/l. The IC-FI method afforded a low relative standard deviation (3.6%) and was free from interferences. The IC-FI procedure was applied to the determination of acetate in mustard sauce and the results obtained agree with those provided by the reference method. Additionally, the developed method permits the simultaneous chromatographic analysis of other anions such as chloride, nitrate, phosphate, sulphate, and so on.
