TI  - Flow-injection analysis for the determination of total inorganic carbon and total 
      organic carbon in water using the H2O2-luminol-uranine chemiluminescent reaction.
PG  - 2175-82
AB  - In the presence of carbonate and uranine, the chemiluminescent intensity from the 
      reaction of luminol with hydrogen peroxide was dramatically enhanced in a basic 
      medium. Based on this fact and coupled with the technique of flow-injection 
      analysis, a highly sensitive method was developed for the determination of 
      carbonate with a wide linear range. The method provided the determination of 
      carbonate with a wide linear range of 1.0 x 10(-10)-5.0 x 10(-6) mol L(-1) and a 
      low detection limit (S/N = 3) of carbonate of 1.2 x 10(-11) mol L(-1). The 
      average relative standard deviation for 1.0 x 10(-9)-9.0 x 10(-7) mol L(-1) of 
      carbonate was 3.7% (n = 11). Combined with the wet oxidation of potassium 
      persulfate, the method was applied to the simultaneous determination of total 
      inorganic carbon (TIC) and total organic carbon (TOC) in water. The linear ranges 
      for TIC and TOC were 1.2 x 10(-6)-6.0 x 10(-2) mg L(-1) and 0.08-30 mg L(-1) 
      carbon, respectively. Recoveries of 97.4-106.4% for TIC and 96.0-98.5% for TOC 
      were obtained by adding 5 or 50 mg L(-1) of carbon to the water samples. The 
      relative standard deviations (RSDs) were 2.6-4.8% for TIC and 4.6-6.6% for TOC (n 
      = 5). The mechanism of the chemiluminescent reaction was also explored and a 
      reasonable explanation about chemical energy transfer from luminol to uranine was 
      proposed.
