Abstract: | Rapid methods were developed for the direct determination of Ag, Al, Cd and Mn in cocaine and heroin by ETAAS using programmes
omitting the charring step . Sample pretreatment was simple: dissolution in ultrapure water or in 35.0% (v/v) HNO3 for heroin or cocaine, respectively. Optimum drying temperatures were 250 °C for Ag, Al and Mn, and 300 °C for Cd. The run
cycles were 35 and 37 s, for Ag and Al respectively, and 36 s for Cd and Mn. The best results were obtained with Pd, Mg(NO3)2 and (NH4)2HPO4, as chemical modifiers. The limits of detection were 8.6, 55.9, 2.2 and 12.4 μg kg-1 for Ag, Al, Cd and Mn, respectively.
