Abstract:
A novel chemiluminescence (CL) system with diperiodatonickelate (IV) (DPN) was developed for the determination of adrenaline for the first time. The possible CL emission mechanism was briefly discussed by comparing the fluorescence emission spectra with CL spectra. Under the optimum conditions, the relative CL intensity was linear over the concentration of AD ranging from 1.0×10(-7) to 1.0×10(-5) g mL(-1) with a detection limit of 4.0×10(-8) g mL(-1) (3σ). And the relative standard deviation was 3.7% for 2.0×10(-6) g mL(-1) AD (n=11). The developed method has been successfully applied to the determination of AD in pharmaceutical preparations.

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...
