Solid phase extraction and spectrophotometric determination of trace amounts of thiocyanate in real samples.

A simple, selective and rapid method for solid phase extraction and spectrophotometric determination of thiocyanate using a manganese (III) tetrakis (p-sulfonatophenyl) porphyrin, [Mn (TPPS) OAC] bound to Amberlite IR-400 has been developed. The influence of pH, amount of solid phase, sample matrix, type and amount of eluting agent and flow rates i.e.
