Abstract

The present research focuses the adaptation of the colorimetric method of the ascorbic acid as micro method for the quantification of soluble phosphorus in microbial cultures, by determination of the parameters: linearity, precision, accuracy, detection and quantification limits. A solution of phosphate potassium dehydrogenate (KH2PO4) was used as reference intern pattern. The method can quantify soluble phosphorus values above 0,9 µg/mL. It was demonstrated that the micro method is exact, precise and lineal, for 95 % of confiability.
Key words: micro method, phosphate, solubilization, ascorbic acid.
