Resumo

Alginates, both commercial and laboratory made, are strongly fluorescent due to small amounts of polyphenolic materials. These contaminants can be detected by fluorescence spectroscopy in concentrations lower than 1 ppm. This technique has been used to measure polyphenols in a wide range of alginates and various procedures for preparation of biotechnological-grade alginates have been evaluated.
