The possibility that the reaction between Tl(III) (10-75 ¦ÌM) and luminol at physiological pH requires the presence of a co-oxidant to produce chemiluminescence (CL) was evaluated. At pH 7.4 Tl(III) did not produce CL, unless the media was added with H₂O₂. This effect linearly depended both on Tl(III) (10-75 ¦ÌM) and H₂O₂ (0.1-1 mM) concentrations. In the absence of agitation CL kinetics followed an oscillatory pattern, resembling a Belousov-Zhabotinski reaction. The optimal pH for the reaction was 7 with no CL detected below pH 6.5. The optimal temperature range for the reaction was 20-30 ¡ãC, decreasing at higher temperatures and being undetectable beyond 45 ¡ãC. The amount of Tl(I) recovered from samples matched the theoretical amount of Tl(OH)²⁺ in samples, suggesting that this species may be responsible for the reaction. Proposed mechanism indicates that Tl(III) forms a complex with luminol with an apparent association constant (K) estimated to be 1.95¡Á10¹⁰ M^?1. Superoxide anion was generated along the reaction, and the addition of superoxide dismutase decreased but not abolished CL. In summary, Tl(III) can be detected at micromolar concentrations at physiological pH through the reaction with luminol, provided H₂O₂ is present as a co-oxidant.
