eng Voltammetric Determination of β Carotene in Vegetable and Pharmaceutical Samples A new voltammetric approach for the determination of β-carotene has been developed. Contrary to already presented electroanalytical methods, the proposed setup utilizes a less harmful organic solvent and a non-mercury electrode. The respective procedure is based on direct extraction of the analyte from the sample with acetone containing 0.1 mol L–1 LiClO4 and subsequent anodic oxidation of β-carotene at a gold electrode using square wave voltammetry in the same medium.
