Abstract
A flow-injection chemiluminescence method for the determination of isoniazid based on the sensitizing effect of isoniazid on the chemiluminescence generating luminol-hypochlorite reaction is described. The hypochlorite was electrogenerated on-line by constant current electrolysis, thus, eliminating instability of hypochlorite solution prepared from commercially available sodium hypochlorite. The calibration graph is linear in the range 1 × 10–8 to 1 × 10–6 g mL–1, and the detection limit is 6 × 10–9 g mL–1. The relative standard deviation for determination of 5 × 10–8 g mL–1 is 2.8%. The proposed method has been successfully applied to the determination of isoniazid in pharmaceutical preparations.
