Spectrophotometric determination of formaldehyde based on the telomerization reaction of tryptamine
A simple and sensitive spectrophotometric method for the determination of formaldehyde FA in different samples using tryptamine TA in a sulfuric acid medium was developed. A trace amount of sodium nitrite was added to enhance the production of a red violet colored product exhibiting an absorbance ma...
