Abstract
Taking into consideration the high toxicity of the nitrated and nitrosated products (e.g. nitrosamines, nitrophenols...), their analysis have to be made very carefully.
During the analysis of the nitrogenous compounds, these substances are not well quantified with the common analysis. The DPP seems to be performant and specific. The main polarographic parameters which have an influence on the sensibility of the detection were developped : supporting electrolyte, pH, dissolved oxygen... Besides, a best resolution of the compounds which have the same half wave potential was performed using HPLC technics and DPP detection.
The influence of some inorganic compound like nitrites or macromolecular organic matters (humic substances, proteins.. ) was investigated. The detection limit varies from 1 to 10 ppt according to the matrix.
