Sulphate can be determined spectrofluorimetrically (A,, = 505 nm, A,, = 410 nm) based on the formation of a ternary complex between sulphate, zirconium and calcein in a flow-injection system.

✦ Synopsis
An analytical flow-injection procedure based on PbS04 colloidal formation is proposed as a turbidimetric determination of sulphate in natural waters. Ethanol-water was used as a medium in order to improve the sensibility of the method. Both chemical and flow variables as well as interfering species were studied. A detection limit of 0.3 pg SOi-ml-' was found, and the analytical range (according to Beer's law) was 2-20 pg SO:-ml-'. The precision was better than 3% R.S.D. and the sample throughput was ca. 35 h-'. The method, when compared with a standard methodology, gave good results when applied to water analysis.
