Spectrophotometric study was carried out, for the first time, to investigate the reaction between the antidepressant fluvoxamine (FXM) and 1,2-naphthoquinone-4-sulphonate (NQS) reagent. In alkaline medium (pH 9), an orange-colored product exhibiting maximum absorption peak (lambda(max)) at 470nm was produced. The

A sensitive CE method for determining biogenic amines in wines based on in-capillary derivatization with 1,2-naphthoquinone-4-sulfonate is presented. In this method, reagent and buffer solutions are introduced hydrodynamically into the capillary whereas the sample is injected electrokinetically, thus, allowing a

This paper revises the derivatization approaches for the determination of biogenic amines in wines. Since most of these amines display poor spectroscopic features to be detected by UV absorption or emission (fluorescence) spectroscopy, derivatization is necessary to attain the desired
