title: Determination of phenylalanine in river water by high-performance liquid chromatography.
abstract: The use of o-phthalaldehyde derivatisation of phenylalanine followed by high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection as used for amino acid analysis in clinical laboratories was examined to assess its suitability for the monitoring of river pollution by the dairy industry by measuring the phenylalanine levels in river water. The method is described together with its statistical evaluation.
