Evaluation of amperometric detector for liquid chromatographic determination of 2-phenylphenol residues in orange rind. 1978

D E Ott

A modular component liquid chromatograph has been assembled which has on-stream ultraviolet (UV) and amperometric detectors connected to a dual pen recorder. In this method, the commonly used UV detection technique provides a reference for direct comparisons of results from the amperometric detector. The system has been evaluated and applied to the determination of 2-phenylphenol (2PP) fortified in orange rind. The method is not tedious; before liquid chromatographic analysis, the sample is extracted with methylene chloride and cleaned up on a Florisil column. The method is sensitive to less than 1 ppm 2PP fortified in orange rind; there are no electrically oxidizable interference, from control samples, in the chromatographic region of 2PP. Some background interference does appear from the same samples on the UV chromatogram. Thus, amperometric detection is more specific than UV detection for this application.
