Popis: | The quantification of zinc in over-the–counter drugs as commercial propolis extracts by molecular fluorescence technique using meso-tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (H2TCPP4) was developed for the first time. The calibration curve is linear from 6.60 to 100 nmol L−1 of Zn2+. The detection and quantification limits were 6.22 nmol L−1 and 19.0 nmol L−1, respectively. The reproducibility and repeatability calculated as the percentage variation of slopes of seven calibration curves were 6.75% and 4.61%, respectively. Commercial propolis extract samples from four Brazilian states were analyzed and the results (0.329–0.797 mg/100 mL) obtained with this method are in good agreement with that obtained with the Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) technique. The method is simple, fast, of low cost and allows the analysis of the samples without pretreatment. Moreover the major advantage is that Zn-porphyrin complex presents fluorescent characteristic promoting the selectivity and sensitivity of the method. |
