Monitoring Ammonium Polyphosphate (APP) Biodegradation by D-3 Using DAPI.

Ammonium polyphosphate (APP), a pivotal constituent within environmentally friendly flame retardants, exhibits notable decomposition susceptibility and potentially engenders ecological peril. Consequently, monitoring the APP concentration to ensure product integrity and facilitate the efficacious management of wastewater from production processes is of great significance. A fluorescent assay was devised to swiftly discern APP utilizing 4',6'-diamino-2-phenylindole (DAPI).
