Plastic cuvettes coated chemically with Prussian Blue films were investigated as quick disposable spectrophotometric test for mercapto-compounds.The determination is based on discoloration of the coating film due to its reduction by analyte. The changes of film absorbance were measured at 720 nm. It was found that the cuvettes can be used for selective determination of cysteamine, pmercaptoethanol and L-cysteine in millimolar ranges of concentration. The test is useful for determination of L-cysteine and N-acetylcysteine in pharmaceutical products.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
