PRINCIPLE
Chromium in the sample is oxidized to Chromium (VI) during digestion. Chromium (VI) reacts with Diphenylcarbazide to produce a red color in the sample, the intensity of which is proportional to the amount of Chromium present in the sample. The method is highly dependent on temperature and pH. The sample temperature should be between 18 and 22°C and the pH between 3 and 9.
Chromium (III) is an essential element for humans and can be metabolized in the body. Chromium (III) is found naturally in fruits, vegetables, meats, and grains. Chromium (VI) has been identified as a carcinogen and can cause genetic changes. Chromium (VI) is released from steel and paper mills or through the oxidation of Chromium (III). Chromium (VI) has been a regulated drinking water contaminant since the 1940s, with the US EPA only regulating total Chromium.
