Abstract:
This paper describes a potentiometric method for determination of l-histidine (l-his) in aqueous media, using a carbon paste electrode modified with tetra-3,4-pyridinoporphirazinatocopper(II) (Cu (3,4tppa)). The electrode exhibits linear response to the logarithm of the concentration of l-histidine from 2.4 x 10(-5) to 1.0 x 10(-2)M, with a response slope of -49.5 +/- 1mV and response time of about 1.5min. The detection limit according to IUPAC recommendation was 2.0 x 10(-5)M. The proposed electrode shows a good selectivity for l-his over a wide variety of anions. This chemically modified carbon paste electrode was successfully used for the determination of l-his in a synthetic serum and RANDOX control serum solutions.

Effects of EDTA on End-Point Detection Methods
In the visual method, metal-ion indicators (metallochromic dyes), which have distinct colors in their free and complex forms, are added to the mixture to signal the titration's end point. They form stable complexes with metal ions, but these complexes are weaker than the corresponding metal–EDTA complexes. As a result, EDTA...
