Abstract

A combined anion-exchange-spectrophotometric method has been worked out for the determination of titanium in biological materials. The sample is dry-ashed at 420°C. The ash (ca. 0.5 g) is then decomposed with a mixture of nitric, perchloric and hydrofluoric acids, and is finally taken up in hydrochloric acid. The titanium is collected by anion-exchange on an Amberlite CG 400 (SCN−) column from 1 M thiocyanate — 1 M hydrochloric acid solution and eluted with 4 M hydrochloric acid. Titanium is subsequently determined spectrophotometrically with diantipyrylmethane. Results of the determination of titanium in various materials of biological origin and in two NBS standard biological samples are compiled. Standard deviations are in the range of 3–9% (2.4% in synthetic mixtures).
