The stopped-flow mixing technique has been used to study the kinetic determination of propranolol by means of micellar-stabilized room-temperature phosphorescence. This mixing system diminishes the time required for the deoxygenation of micellar medium by sodium sulfite, allowing a kinetic curve that levels off within only 7s to be obtained. The phosphorescence enhancers thallium (I) nitrate, sodium dodecyl sulfate, and sodium sulfite were optimized to obtain maximum sensitivity and selectivity. A pH value of 6.54 was selected as adequate for phosphorescence development. The kinetic curves of propranolol phosphorescence were scanned at lambda(ex)=290 nm and lambda(em)=524 nm. The calibration graphs were linear for the concentration range from 25 to 400 ng mL(-1). The phosphorescence lifetime of propranolol is approximately 1210 micros. The detection limit calculated as proposed clayton was 13.53 ng mL(-1) and by applying the error propagation theory, the detection limit was 8.37 ng mL(-1). The repeatability was studied using 10 solutions of 200 ng mL(-1) of propranolol; if error propagation theory is assumed, the relative error is 1.94%. The standard deviation for a replicate sample was 4.0 ng mL(-1). This method was successfully applied to the determination of propranolol in commercial formulations and in urine. Suitable recovery values were obtained.
