Abstract

The determination of the cationic active disinfectants benzalkonium chloride, benzethonium chloride, cetrimide, and cetylpyridinium chloride according to PH. EUR. 2002 resp. supplement 4.3/2003 can be improved using the DBH-method. By application of column extraction the iodide determination can be performed in the organic layer by visual indication. However, titration in aqueous solution with sodium dodecyl sulphate as titrant and methyl orange resp. bromophenol blue as indicator can be performed more simple. Cetylpyridinium tetrachlorozincate is recommended as a standard for tenside titration.
