| Abstract | The Scopoletin-Peroxidase fluorescence decay method has been developed using standard additions and a flow injection manifold for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) determination in marine waters. The limit of detection of the method was optimized using stored milli-Q water with a minimum of 5 nM (3 sigma). The method was found to be linear from 5 to 700 nM, with an approximate relative standard deviation of 10%. This accuracy was verified on both milli-Q and natural waters running systematically duplicate analysis. The validity and the sensitivity of the technique was studied through the influence of pH, salinity and the dissolved organic matter (DOM) concentration. Standard additions avoided all matrix and experimental interferences, making it possible to use this method under any field conditions and on ''humic-rich'' waters. Additionally, the flow injection manifold improved the accuracy and the runtime of the analytical procedure and simplified the field manipulation. | ||||||||
