description

Abstract The flow-injection spectrofluorimetric determination of emetine was carried out by photoderivatization in the presence of barium peroxide, in a flow-injection assembly in which the PTFE tubing in the injection valve is helically coiled around the lamp. The sample solution merges with a barium peroxidephosphoric acid solution and then the resulting mixture is irradiated; pure distilled water is used as a carrier stream. The calibration graph is linear over the range 0.05–50 μ g ml −1 of emetine dihydrochloride. The influence of foreign compounds was studied and the method was applied to the determination of emetine in injection and human urine samples.
