description

Abstract The fluorimetric flow-injection determination of reserpine was achieved with the drug being derivatized on-line by photoreaction. PTFE tubing was helically coiled around a germicide lamp located between the injection valve and detector. Two analytical procedures are proposed using either dilute acetic acid or pure methanol as the carrier stream. The influence of foreign compounds was studied and the method was applied to the determination of reserpine in pharmaceutical formulations.
