Abstract

Edible Swiftlet Nest (ESN) is a swiftlet's saliva product that contains many beneficial compounds. However, improper washing leaves behind toxic nitrite content. To ensure its absence, sensitive and accurate methods are needed, such as UV-Vis spectrophotometry. However, long analysis time and complicated maintenance, limit its further use. In this research, cyclic voltammetry was developed as an alternative analysis method for nitrite content in ESN. The results show that the LOD and LOQ of this method are 0.658529 ppm and 1.995544 ppm, respectively. Compared to this value, analysis using UV-visible spectrophotometry shows lower LOD and LOQ values, respectively 0.061579 ppm and 0.186602 ppm. © 2024, Rasayan Journal of Chemistry, c/o Dr. Pratima Sharma.
