Spectrophotometric determination of iodate in iodised salt by flow injection analysis
Food Chemistry, 2011A simple and sensitive flow injection (FI) method for the determination of iodate is proposed. The method is based on the reaction of iodate with hydroxylamine in acidic solution. Sulfanilamide is diazotised by the nascent nitrite and the diazonium ion produced is then coupled with N-(1-naphthyl)ethyenediamine in hydrochloric acid medium to form an azo
