A flow-injection system is proposed for the rapid determination of trace amounts of formaldehyde based on its inhibition of the Brilliant Green-suiphite reaction at pI1 7. Formaldehyde in the range 40-3000 ng ml-' can be determined at a rate of 35 f 5 samples h -I. The limit of detection was 20 ng m

β¦ Synopsis
A method for the determination of sulphite is based on the addition reaction of sulphite with Brilliant Green at pH 7 and 25 o C. The decrease in absorbance of Brilliant Green (X,, = 615 nm) over a fixed time is proportional to the concentration of sulphite over the range of 10-1200 ng ml-'. The limit of detection was found to be 5 ng ml-!. Five replicate analyses of a sample solution containing 1 pg ml-' sulphite gave a relative standard deviation of 1%. The interferences of various ions were studied. A cation-exchange resin was used for removal of interfering ions. The method was applied to the determination of sulphite in fruit juices.
