Abstract

In this paper, the research made on the factors which influence the determination of LAS in sea water by MBAS and HPLC methods was summarized. These factors are purity of LAB and LAS, degradation, light, storage time, salinity and methods used for analysis. These factors were discussed and a modification on the MBAS method was proposed.

Keywords: LAB, LAS, factors, purity, degradation, MBAS
