The sulphur take an essential role in plants and it is one of the main nutrients in several metabolic processes. The dry ash oxidation, using alkaline oxidizers agent, is the simplest and most economical form for the oxidation of Organic S to sulfate in plants. The objective of this work is to propose a method for sulfur determination in plants samples using dry ash oxidation and agent oxidizers alkaline. The quantification of S-SO4(2-) in samples was accomplished by turbidimetric method. The results demonstrated that the proposed method for oxidation alkaline was appropriate.
