The present work reports a study of the chelatometric method (by EDTA titration) for determination of sulfate in plant materials. A preliminary study about the indicator, conditions for the good precipitation of barium sulfate, and other influences on the method were performed. The presence of cations in the plant extracts did not cause interferences because they were separated using a cation exchange resin. The phosphate interferes and this ion can be removed by precipitation as ferric phosphate, adding ferric iron, acetate and ammonium hydroxide. Sulfate was determined in aqueous solutions, containing several ions, with good results. In order to compare the chelatometric (based in the proposed technique) and the gravimetric methods, in the determination of total sulfur in plants, five replications of different plant materials were analysed by both methods. The data obtained allowed to conclude that the technique proposed is good and the accuracy satisfactory. The determination of sulfur-sulfate was performed by the proposed method with satisfactory results.Downloads
