[Microdetermination of fluoride in human bones (author's transl)]. 1979

M Hanocq, and M Helson-Cambier

A spectrophotometric method (cerium(III)-alizarin complexan-fluoride in presence of 25% dimethylsulfoxyde) is described for the determination of fluoride in human bones. The anion is determined after separation by microdiffusion as hydrofluoric acid using Petri boxes without any mineralization. This analytical method is selective, accurate and rapid.
