A novel chitosan-based resin functionalized with threonine moiety was synthesized, and applied to the collection/concentration of Mo, V and Cu in environmental water samples, followed by their determination using inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometer (ICP-AES). The synthesized resin, cross-linked chitosan-threonine (CCTS-Thr), showed good adsorption behavior toward trace amounts of Mo, V and Cu in a wide pH range. The adsorbed elements can be easily eluted using 2molL(-1) of nitric acid, and their recoveries were found to be 90-100%. The CCTS-Thr was packed in a mini-column, which was then installed in a computer-controlled auto-pretreatment system (Auto-Pret System) for on-line trace elements collection and determination by ICP-AES. Experimental parameters related to the improvement of sensitivity and reproducibility were optimized. The limits of detection (LODs) for target metals were found to be in sub-ppb level. The proposed method with CCTS-Thr resin was successfully applied to the determination of Mo, V and Cu in environmental water samples. The recovery test showed that common matrices which exist in environmental water samples did not interfere with the determination. 相似文献

Using symmetry to determine Hamiltonian matrix elements for quantum systems with finite group symmetry is a special case of obtaining group-generated irreducible tensorial matrices. A group-generated irreducible tensorial matrix transforms irreducibly under the group and is a linear combination of group transformations on a reference matrix. The reference matrix elements may be appropriate integrals or parameters. The methods of normalized irreducible tensorial matrices (NITM) are employed to express elements of the generated matrix in terms of those of the reference matrix without performing the actual transformations. Only NTTM components of the reference matrix with the same transformation properties as the group-generated matrix will contribute to its elements. The elements of invariant symmetry-generated matrices are proportional to simple averages of certain elements of the reference matrix. This relation is substantially more efficient than previous techniques for evaluating matrix elements of octahedral and tetragonal d-type ligand-field Hamiltonians. 相似文献

XRF and TXRF were established as useful techniques for multi-element analysis of whole blood and human head hair samples.
Direct-XRF with different collimation units and different X-ray excitation modes was successfully used for the determination
of S, P, K, Ca, Fe, and Br elements in blood samples and K, Ca, Mn, Fe elements in human hair samples. Direct analysis by
TXRF was used for the determination of Rb and Sr in digested blood and human hair samples, respectively, while, the co-precipitation
method using APDC for TXRF analysis was used for the determination of Ni, Cu, Zn, and Pb elements in both matrices. As a result,
the improved XRF and TXRF methods were applied for multi-element determination of elements in whole blood and human hair samples
in non-occupational exposed population living in Damascus city. The mean concentrations of analyzed elements in both matrices
were on the reported range values for non-occupational population in other countries. 相似文献

Photon activation analysis (PAA) is a multi-elemental radioanalytical technique in trace elements analysis with high accuracy and precision. Researchers at the Idaho accelerator center performed PAA analysis on coffee samples from several locations around the world as an initial step in assessing the relationship between trace elements in illicit drugs and the soils in which they were grown. The preliminary results show coffees from different locations have different concentrations of trace elements. In the three cases where we have soil samples, the matrices of elements in the coffee samples are closely related to the matrices of the elements of the local soil samples. The majority of trace elemental content is similar to that of the local soil sample in which the coffee is planted. It may be that coffee assimilates numerous elements from the soil where it is grown in similar ratios as is found in the soil. Thus, it is conceivable that the elemental content could serve as “fingerprint” to trace the origins of the coffee. To verify our analytical results we applied X-ray fluorescence (XRF) methods as well. Our PAA results are consistent with XRF experimental data. The future of tracing the origin of illicit drugs with the PAA technique is promising. 相似文献

This work presents the development of an on-line pre-concentration system for simultaneous determination of Cd, Cu, Ni, V, Zn, Co and Pb in aqueous environmental samples and detection by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The system is based on cationic retention of the analytes onto a mini-column filled with silica gel modified with niobium(V) oxide. The effects of chemicals and flow variables have been investigated. The optimized operating conditions, selected as a compromise between sensitivity and analytical frequency were: sample pH 7.0, sample flow rate of 6.0mL min(-1), eluent flow rate of 2.0mL min(-1), and eluent (HNO(3)) concentration of 2.5mol L(-1). The relative standard deviation (n=7), enrichment factor and linear working range were 0.8-4.5%, 23.3-37.2 and 0.05-25.0microg L(-1), respectively. Limits of detection were between 0.01 and 0.03microg L(-1). The accuracy of the proposed method was checked with certified materials (NASS-4, NASS-5, CASS-4 and SRM 1643e). Values obtained were in accordance with those reported for the certified materials. Recovery was found to be in the range of 90-110% for a suit of water samples with variable matrices (seawater, tap water and ground water) collected in Florianopolis, Brazil. 相似文献

Environmental matrices including soils, sediments, and living organisms are reservoirs of several essential as well as non-essential elements. Accurate qualitative and quantitative information on the distribution and interaction of biologically significant elements is vital to understand the role of these elements in environmental and biological samples. Synchrotron micro-X-ray fluorescence (μ-SXRF) allows in situ mapping of biologically important elements at nanometer to sub-micrometer scale with high sensitivity, negligible sample damage and enable tuning of the incident energy as desired. Beamlines in the synchrotron facilities are rapidly increasing their analytical versatility in terms of focusing optics, detector technologies, incident energy, and sample environment. Although extremely competitive, it is now feasible to find stations offering complimentary techniques like micro-X-ray diffraction (μ-XRD) and micro-X-ray absorption spectroscopy (μ-XAS) that will allow a more complete characterization of complex matrices. This review includes the most recent literature on the emerging applications and challenges of μ-SXRF in studying the distribution of biologically important elements and manufactured nanoparticles in soils, sediments, plants, and microbes. The advantages of using μ-SXRF and complimentary techniques in contrast to conventional techniques used for the respective studies are discussed. 相似文献

On-line coupling of inductively coupled plasma (ICP) techniques such as ICP-AES and ICP-MS with ion chromatography (IC) offers unique features for ultra-trace analysis. An on-line preconcentration procedure based on cation exchange enables sub-ng/g analysis in complex matrices like molybdenum and tungsten. The best dissolution reagent for these matrices is hydrogen peroxide, which can be cleaned to ultra high purity with the same metal free chromatography equipment used for the preconcentration. Preconcentration is possible for elements that show cationic reactions within acidic peroxide containing solutions. In this study 28 elements detrimental for microelectronics applications are observed. A comparison of the combinations IC-ICP-AES and IC-ICP-MS with glow discharge mass spectrometry (GDMS) for the analysis of today's purest tungsten samples shows the analytical power and accuracy of the coupled devices. Graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS) as an extremely sensitive analytical technique is applied with and without the same sample pretreatment as used for the on-line coupling. Direct GFAAS measurements of alkali metals are complementary to IC-ICP techniques. The data evaluated with these wet chemical techniques are compared to the usual manufacturers characterisation technique GDMS. With respect to the low concentrations present in these high purity materials (ng/g level in the solid) the discrepancies between all methods are acceptable. The sensitivity of IC-ICP-MS is in most cases far superior to IC-ICP-AES and for some elements also to GDMS. Furthermore the specific advantages of on-line coupling such as the elimination of isobaric interferences in ICP-MS or spectral interferences in ICP-AES are shown for ICP-AES and ICP-MS determinations. 相似文献

Chemical neutron activation analysis was developed for determining trace amounts of arsenic and mercury in a variety of environmental matrices, including water, sediment, rock, plants, animal organs, etc: The adsorption procedure via magnesium oxide as the agent was applied to preconcentrate arsenic from the digested environmental matrices where arsenic in the form of As(V) ion could be highly efficiently adsorbed by hydrous magnesium oxide. On the other hand, the extraction procedure via lead diethyldithiocarbamate as the agent was applied to preconcentrate mercury from the digested environmental matrices where mercury in the form of Hg(II) ion could be highly efficiently extracted into the solution of lead diethyldithiocarbamte in dichloromethane. Both of the preconcentrated materials prepared ultimately in the solid states, i.e., arsenic in magnesium oxide and mercury in lead diethyldithiocarbamte were taken to be neutron irradiated. The γ spectra of the preconcentrated samples irradiated generally showed clear peaks of the product radionuclides from arsenic or from mercury by the different separation procedures. The possible interfering elements such as Na, Br, etc., were prominently minimized in respect of most of the preconcentrated samples. The reliability and accuracy of the proposed analytical methods for detecting arsenic and mercury can be confirmed by the assay of commercial standard reference materials including sediment, rock, plants, and animal organs. 相似文献

Five sample presentation techniques were examined for the X-ray fluorescence spectrometric analysis of tungsten carbide alloys in powder and cemented forms. Powder samples may be oxidized by air at 600° before fusion (I), or preferably by lithium nitrate during fusion (II); the fusion is effected with lithium-lanthanum tetraborate followed by briquetting with graphite. Powder samples may also be blended with wax and briquetted (III). Cemented carbides are surface-prepared with silicon carbide before analysis (V). Briquettes prepared by blending carbide powder, lithium-lanthanum tetraborate and graphite (IV), give poor reproducibility, however, owing to micro-absorption effects the technique is not recommended. The determination of eight common elements in tungsten carbide is discussed and the relative standard deviations are 0.002–0.004 for major and 0.008–0.01 for minor elements. 相似文献

Estrogens have been often identified as the major contributors to the endocrine-disrupting activity observed in environmental waters. However, their analysis in these, sometimes very complex, matrices is still challenging due to the very low detection limits and the selectivity required for their reliable determination at the very low concentrations at which they are physiologically active. In this work, a polyclonal enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit for 17-beta-estradiol analysis, high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) based on triple-quadrupole analyzer (QqQ), and a newly developed method based on ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time of flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF-MS) have been evaluated in terms of performance for the rapid screening, quantitative analysis, and unequivocal identification of some selected, environmentally relevant estrogens in different water matrices, including urban wastewater, river water, and ground water, after solid phase extraction. Compounds quantified and/or identified included the estrogens 17-beta-estradiol, estrone, 17-alpha-ethynyl estradiol and estriol, and the isoflavones daidzein, genistein, and biochanin A. Except for a moderate overestimation using the ELISA kit, especially in the analysis of complex wastewater samples, results obtained by all the investigated techniques were in very good, general agreement. The instrumental sensitivity achieved increased in the order: UPLC-Q-TOF-MS < polyclonal ELISA kit < HPLC-MS/MS (QqQ). Direct analysis of water samples by using the ELISA kit permitted to reach a limit of detection of 2.5 ng L(-1). However, using an appropriated sample pretreatment method detection limits at nanogram to picogram per liter levels can be obtained with all techniques and the risk for matrix effects is minimized. In terms of selectivity, both HPLC-MS/MS (QqQ) and UPLC-Q-TOF-MS show outstanding performance, but the latter allows, in addition, shorter analysis times (16 min vs. 45 min) and the identification of non-target, unknown compounds. The identification of unknown compounds is based on the accurate mass measurements for the precursor and product ions, that permit the elemental compositions calculation and the chemical structures to be identified searching against different databases. 相似文献

A chitosan resin functionalized with 3,4-diamino benzoic acid (CCTS-DBA resin) was newly synthesized by using a cross-linked chitosan (CCTS) as base material. The adsorption behavior of trace amounts of elements on the CCTS-DBA resin was examined by the pretreatment with a mini-column and measurement of the elements by inductively coupled plasma-Mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Arsenic(V) could be retained on the CCTS-DBA resin at pH 3 as an oxoanion of H2AsO4−. Selenium(VI) is strongly adsorbed at pH 2 and pH 3 as an oxoanion of SeO42−, while selenium(IV) as HSeO3− is adsorbed on the resin at pH 3. The sorption capacities are 82, 64, and 88 mg g−1resin for As(V), Se(IV), and Se(VI), respectively. The effect of common anions and cations on the adsorption of As(V), Se(IV), and Se(VI) were studied; there was no interference from such anionic matrices as chloride, sulfate, phosphate, and nitrate up to 20 ppm, as well as from such artificial river water matrices as Na, K, Mg, and Ca after passing samples through the mini-column containing the resin. The CCTS-DBA resin was applied to the collection of arsenic and selenium species in bottled drinking water, tap water, and river water. 相似文献

Environmental pollution by metals is a recognized problem worldwide. As a result of the exposure to this pollution, marine species may bioaccumulate metals in both muscle and fishbone, as has been demonstrated in some species of tuna. The objective of this study has been the development and optimization of an inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) based method, which allows the quantification of 21 elements including priority pollutants and biologically essential elements (B, Mg, Al, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Rb, Sr, Pd, Cd, Ba, La, Hg and Pb) in muscle and in the first spine of the first dorsal fin of albacore (Thunnus alalunga) and bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus). A microwave-assisted digestion has been developed for sample treatment, which has been evaluated using isotope dilution analysis (IDA) of Cr, Se, Cd, Ba and Pb. Evaluation of the analytical method in terms of sensitivity (LOQ between 0.002 and 1?mg?kg?1), accuracy and precision within and between days (CV?<?11.3%) has also been conducted. The developed method has allowed information to be obtained on levels of these metals in both matrices. The correlation analyses performed for each of the metals in both matrices shows a positive linear relationship between the concentrations in muscle and fishbone for Zn, Se, Rb, Cd, As and Hg, which could be due to a higher bioaccumulation of these elements in muscle as it is concluded from the low spine/muscle ratios observed for these elements. The 34 specimens of tuna analyzed show that while the levels of Pb, Cd, Ni, Zn, Cu and Cr in muscle are below the limits set by the WHO/FAO, EC and the US-EPA, Hg shows higher concentration than the limits set by the EC in four samples, indicating a potential risk to human health. 相似文献

ICP-MS multielemental determination of metals potentially released from dental implants and articular prostheses in human biological fluids 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

A sector field high-resolution (HR)-ICP-MS and an octapole reaction system (ORS)-ICP-MS have been compared for the simultaneous determination of traces of metals (Ti, V, Cr, Co, Ni, and Mo) released from dental implants and articular prostheses in human biological fluids. Optimum sample treatments were evaluated to minimize matrix effects in urine and whole blood. Urine samples were diluted tenfold with ultrapure water, whereas whole blood samples were digested with high-purity nitric acid and hydrogen peroxide and finally diluted tenfold with ultrapure water. In both matrices, internal standardization (Ga and Y) was employed to avoid potential matrix interferences and ICP-MS signal drift. Spectral interferences arising from the plasma gases or the major components of urine and whole blood were identified by (HR)-ICP-MS at 3,000 resolving power. The capabilities of (HR)-ICP-MS and (ORS)-ICP-MS for the removal of such spectral interferences were evaluated and compared. Results indicate that polyatomic interferences, which hamper the determination of such metallic elements in these biological samples, could be overcome by using a resolving power of 3,000. Using (ORS)-ICP-MS, all those elements could be quantified except Ti and V (due to the polyatomic ions 31P16O and 35Cl16O, respectively). The accuracy of the proposed methodologies by (HR)- and (ORS)-ICP-MS was checked against two reference materials. Good agreement between the given values and the concentrations obtained for all the analytes under scrutiny was found except for Ti and V when analyzed by (ORS)-ICP-MS. 相似文献

Three digestion procedures have been tested on lichen samples for application in the determination of major, minor and trace elements (Al, Ca, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Na, Ni, Pb, V and Zn) in lichen samples collected in Aegean Region of Turkey by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometer (ICP-AES). The acid mixture of concentrated HNO3, H2O2 and HF were used. The instrument was optimized using lichen matrix considering RF power, nebulizer pressure, auxiliary flow rate and pump rate. The accuracy of the overall analyses was first estimated by analysis of two certified reference materials. Good agreement between measured and reference values were found for almost all elements. As the second way of determining the accuracy, results obtained from independent analytical techniques (ICP-AES and instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA)) were compared for all elements by analyzing real samples. Correlation coefficients of two techniques for the elements ranged between 0.70 (Mg) and 0.96 (Fe). Among the three digestion systems, namely microwave, open vessel and acid bomb, microwave digestion system gave the best recovery results. The method detection limit (MDL) was computed using reagent blanks of microwave digestion system since it provides cleaner sample preparation. Detection limit is adequate for all elements to determine the elements in lichen samples. The precision was assessed from the replicate analyses of reagent blanks of microwave digestion system and was found to be less than 1.5% relative standard deviation (R.S.D.). 相似文献

The determination of trace elements in the various stages of the water cycle is very important. Economic procedures for multi-element determinations of trace elements in various matrices are needed. The applications of total-reflection x-ray fluorescence spectrometry in this general area are reviewed briefly, with examples relating to rain, river and sea waters, sediments, particulate matter and manganese nodules and crusts, as well as mussel tissue. Up to 25 elements can be determined; these are S, K, Ca, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, As, Pb, Se, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, Mo, Ag, Cd, Sb and Ba. Preliminary treatments of the various matrices are described. Accuracy checks by analysis of reference standards and by application of independent techniques are reported. 相似文献

A strategy for the accurate determination in foodstuffs of seven elements liable to be interfered with (V, Cr, Fe, Co, Ni, As and Se), was successfully applied. Firstly, to reduce spectroscopic interferences, four influential factors (hexapole and quadrupole bias, helium and hydrogen flows) of the collision/reaction cell device were optimised through the experimental design methodology. Secondly, non-spectroscopic interferences, which may severely disturb the analysis of matrices containing large amounts of non-target elements, were significantly reduced by a limited decrease in the flow rate of the optimum initial nebuliser rather than with a specific time-consuming dilution. Finally, the optimised multi-element method was subjected to a full validation that demonstrated its acceptable analytical performance. 相似文献

To tackle the several problematic polyatomic interferences in inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), we have developed a software approach based on data reduction of the measured total mass spectrum through multicomponent analysis (MCA). The approach leans on a working knowledge of interferents that are likely to be encountered in a sample matrix, which composition is known by virtue of the total mass spectrum and knowledge of applied solvents. The full isotopic patterns for all elements and expected interferents are used in the modelling MCA matrix of 250 masses × 105 species at maximum. Polyatomic abundances are calculated by the software. Since all species are modelled fundamentally through their known natural abundances, the MCA matrix can be manipulated and reprocessed until interpretation of the mass spectrum and, hence, interference correction are optimal. The optimum is attained by use of the bar graph and calculation modes of the PC software and criteria for properly found isotopic patterns. With optimized models stored in the data base, the user may routinely process samples in one go, and operate the ICP-MS system in a true all-element mode. Use of elemental equations or measurement of large multivariate calibration sets and pure component solutions are superfluous. Data reduction is solely based on the information about the isotopic patterns, present in the measured mass spectrum itself. As a result, in the case of interferences, detection limits may be lowered by one to two orders of magnitude. The approach is illustrated with an industrial example of Hf determined in NdFeB, and with an environmental example. Here, a suite of elements over the 50–82 amu mass range has been determined in different salt matrices in ground water. 相似文献

Most of the analytical techniques used to quantify elements associated with solid samples suffer from high detection limits and cannot be used for trace elements in biomass samples, particularly when only 20 mg are available for analysis. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) can achieve detection limits of parts-per-trillion with liquid sample introduction by solution nebulisation. This technique was therefore tested with two standard biomass reference materials: oriental tobacco leaves and cabbage leaves. Two preparations successfully used on coal standards were used to digest the solid samples: a total digestion method (wet ashing digestion) and a partial leaching (microwave extraction). The concentrations of up to seventeen elements (As, Ba, Be, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ga, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, Sb, Se, Sn, V and Zn) were measured after the two preparations. The accuracy and sensitivity of the measurements improved when the dilution factor decreased from 5000 to 1000 and to 500. Since the proportion of mineral matter in biomass samples is small (5%), the microwave digestion extracted elements that are generally not completely extracted from coal samples (e.g. Sb). However, some trace element concentrations were below the limit of quantification after microwave extraction, even with a reduced dilution factor (As, Se and Mo) and could not be quantified. A fuel oil was also digested. The trace element concentrations were very low (between 28 and 0.1 microgram g(-1)) but acceptable results were obtained by applying a dilution factor of 100. Only six elements in the fuel oil (As, Ba, Co, Ni, Se and V) had certified or indicated values. Factors affecting the accuracy and sensitivity of the analyses are discussed. The reproducibility of analysis of the tobacco leaf standard was checked over a period of nine months by both digestion methods. The wet ashing method gave acceptable reproducibility for Ba, Cd, Co, Cu, Ga, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, V and Zn but poor precision for Cr, Se and Sn and showed evidence of residual chloride interference for As. The microwave extraction gave good reproducibility for As, Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Mo, Ni and Zn but poor precision for Se and low recoveries for Ga, Mn, Sn and V. In spite of the small quantities of material analysed, it proved possible to determine the trace elements at levels down to 0.1 microgram g(-1) in the reference materials. 相似文献
