Abstract

Thiols are reacted at pH 7 with an excess of ferricyanide. The excess of reagent is determined by adding a measured excess of ascorbic acid followed by back titration of ascorbic acid with 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol. A correction can be made for ascorbic acid, if present with thiols. Tested with dilute solutions of cysteine, glutathione, mercaptoacetic acid and some other water-soluble thiols gave results which are accurate to 0.1%. Glycine, cystine, methionine, etc. do not interfere.
