A method is described for determining total platinum content in urine, blood plasma and tissues of patients or experimental animals receiving cis-dichlorodiamineplatinum(II). The method is based on drying and combustion of the biological material in a muffle furnace. The product of the combustion is dissolved successively in aqua regia, hydrochloric acid and ethylenediamine. The resulting platinum-ethylenediamine complex yields a catalytic current at a dropping mercury electrode allowing to determine platinum by differential pulse polarography. Platinum levels of c. 50-1 000 ng per ml of the biological fluid or per 0.5 g of a tissue can readily be analyzed with a linear calibration.

Method Of Determination

The minimum on the polarographic curves for Bi(III) reduction in HCl solutions occurring when small amounts of surfactants are present can be used for their quantitative determination. The form of the polarograms was examined with respect to the concentration of the surfactant, and the range of concentrations in which the method of determination can be used is discussed.
