Fast microplate assay for simultaneous determination of thiols and dissolved sulfides in wastewater

Résumé

15 The present paper reports the development and the application of a microplate assay for the fast 16 and individual determination of thiols and sulfides. The method is based on the reaction of ethyl 17 propiolate with thiols and sulfides, yielding thioacrylates absorbing in the UV range. 18 Thioacrylate generated by derivation of sulfide with EP presents a bathochromic shift of 19 maximal absorbance wavelength of 16 nm compared to thioacrylates formed with thiols. EP 20 concentration, reaction time and derivatization pH were carefully optimized in order to 21 separately quantify thiols and sulfides using a spectral deconvolution procedure in 15 minutes. 22 The detection limits were 0.6 and 2.8 µM (63.7 and 92.4 µg.L-1) for mercaptopropionic acid 23 (used as reference thiol compound for calibration) and dissolved hydrogen sulfide respectively. 24 Non-thiol sulfur compounds (methionine, sulfates and sulfites) or other nucleophile compound 25 did not display any interference in the determination of MPA or sulfides. Interference from 26 metals was suppressed with application of a reduction step with TCEP and DTPA. Finally, the 27 method has been successfully applied to the analysis of raw and treated wastewater. 28 29
