A fluorescent method has been developed for determination of ascorbic acid concentrations. The method involves treatment of the ascorbic acid with Cu(II) and treating the hydrogen peroxide formed with horseradish peroxidase in the presence of p-hydroxyphenylacetic acid, to form a fluorescent p-hydroxyphenylacetic acid dimer. The reaction is suitable for analysis of concentrations in the range from 50-mu-M to 4 mM ascorbic acid solutions and can be used for analysis of pharmaceutical preparations but is unsuitable for analysis of ascorbate in preparations derived from natural sources. By using a slight modification of the analytical technique it is possible to measure the amount of hydrogen peroxide formed and the residual concentrations of ascorbic acid in solutions treated with varying amounts of copper ion.
