    General description

    Perchloric acid (HClO4), an oxygen acid of chlorine, is strongly acidic in nature. Hydrates of perchloric acid are obtained on its dissolution in water.[3]

    Application

    Perchloric acid has been used to deactivate chloramine-T during the spectrophotometric determination of collagen content of the rat tibialis anterior (TA) tendons and tendon constructs.[5]

    It also may be used in the following studies:
    • Determination of reduced glutathione (GSH) and oxidized glutathione (GSSG) content in liver tissues by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).[1]
    • As an oxidizing agent in the estimation of sulfur (S) in plant samples.
    • As a solvent for the dissolution of plutonium.
