Abstract:
A micro-dialysis method was developed to isolate aqueous salicylic acid from viscous emulsion samples prior to HPLC determination. The optimal conditions for obtaining dialysis efficiency of salicylic acid as well as chromatographic conditions were investigated. Experimental results indicated that the dialysis achieved at pH 2.0 (0.025 M phosphate solution), 0.5 M NaCl addition, and 50-microl/min flow-rate of perfusion stream offered an optimal result. The proposed method provided a simple procedure for isolating salicylic acid from viscous emulsion samples. Application was illustrated by the analysis of salicylic acid in cosmetic products.
