Soluble complexes of aluminum, including fluorides, citrates, acetates, and silicate, were separated from uncomplexed Al and quantitated using gradient elution cation exchange HPLC. Fluorescence detection of the Allumogallion complex allowed detection as low as 7 nM with linearity to 58 µ and relative standard deviations of 3% at the 2 µ level. Dissociation of the complexes on the column and inadequate detection of A1 organic complexes, problems in previous methods, were not observed. Species concentrations at various pH and ionic
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.
