| Popis: | Nitrate is an abundant ion that is present in many industrialized products and the environment. Various analytical methods have been described using the Griess-Ilosvay reagent for the determination of nitrate in different matrices after its reduction to nitrite, in most cases with metallic cadmium as the reducer. This work proposes a new method using aluminum spheres coated with a copper film for this reduction. To optimize the method, it was important to evaluate the conditions for the deposition of the copper film on the aluminum spheres, using a Doehlert matrix. The optimized method provided an analytical range from 2.0 to 100 µmol L-1, with a coefficient of determination of 0.9996 and a standard deviation of residuals (sres) of 7.59 x 10-4. The Limits of Detection and Quantification were 0.59 and 2.0 µmol L-1 respectively. The method was applied using mineral water samples and was shown to provide repeatability less than 6.98% and accuracy obtained through recovery essays between 81.1 and 104.6% for the determination of nitrate in this type of sample. |
