Title Method for the chromatographic determination of acrolein in the presence of aliphatic aldehydes
Original title Metod hromatografičeskogo opredelenija akroleina v prisutstvii alifatičeskih al'degidov [in Russian]
Bibliographic information Oct. 1973, No.10, p.65-67.
Abstract Description of a method using fluorescence for the determination of acrolein, based on a reaction with m-phenylenediamine in a hydrochloric environment (sensitivity: 0.05µg of acrolein in 5mg), and of a method for the separation and quantitative determination of acrolein by chromatography, using thin layers of silicagel paste. For this latter method, 2 solvent systems are recommended: ethanol-chloroform (4:1) and isopropanol-acetic acid-water (12:0.5:5), according to the case. The quantitative determination is made by fluorimetry after extracting the acrolein derivative of silicagel. The sensitivity is 0.1µg acrolein.
