Abstract
Authors studied on fluorescence of tocopherols, α-tocopherol esters and a main metabolite of α-tocopherol i. e., α-tocopherylquinone, also on interference of vitamin A, β-carotene, vitamin D, vitamin K and cholesterol on the fluorometric determination of tocopherol. A comparative study between Rindi method and fluorometric method were undertaken to estimate the tocopherol in serum of human, horse and monkey.
The results thus obtained showed good agreement with the values of Rindi method and satisfactory reproducibility with simplicity.
