Determination of alcohol content in water immiscible organic systems

摘要

A process for the determination of the concentration of a C₁ to C₄ alcohol in an essentially water immiscible organic system comprising the steps of:(a) contacting a sample of the essentially water immiscible organic system containing less than about 0.01% (w/v) of said alcohol with an enzyme probe consisting essentially of an aqueous layer of immobilized alcohol oxidase on a dissolved oxygen electrode; and(b) thereafter measuring the change in oxygen concentration in the aqueous immobilized alcohol oxidase layer.
