Highly buffered samples or extreme sample pH may exceed the
buffering capacity of the reagents and require sample pretreatment; see
Interferences, pH (Section I).
WASTE DISPOSAL
Disposal of cyanide-containing wastes by following the steps below.
a) Use good ventilation or a fume hood
b) Add the waste, while stirring, to a beaker containing a strong solution
of sodium hydroxide and calcium hypochlorite or sodium hypochlorite
(household bleach).
c) Maintain a strong excess of hydroxide and hypochlorite. Let the
solution stand for 24 hours.
d) Flush the solution down the drain with a large excess of water.
SUMMARY OF METHOD
The DithiVer Metals Reagent is a stable powder form of dithizone. Lead
ions in basic solution react with dithizone to form a pink to red lead-
dithizonate complex, which is extracted with chloroform.
