Absence of gradients and Nernstian equilibrium stripping (AGNES) is a recently developed electroanalytical technique specifically designed for the direct determination of free concentrations of metal ions. AGNES is applied here to the determination of free Zn concentration in a river water sample. The method has been validated with synthetic solutions of low ionic strengths containing Zn and 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid and then applied to synthetic river waters and to a natural sample collected from Besòs River in Montcada i Reixac (Catalonia, North-Eastern Spain). In the river sample, an average free Zn concentration of 12.8(4) nM was obtained, while the total dissolved Zn concentration was 0.51(8)?μM. To control and maintain pH and pCO2 constant during AGNES measurements, a novel device for N2/CO2 mixed purging has been developed. 相似文献

Zinc (Zn) has been classified as a “Specific Pollutant” under Annex VIII of the EU Water Framework Directive by two thirds of the EU member states. As a result, the UK Environmental Quality Standard (EQS) for Transitional and Coastal (TrAC) Waters has been reduced from 612 nM to 121 nM total dissolved Zn. It is widely accepted that the free metal ion ([Zn2+]) is the most bioavailable fraction, but there are few techniques available to determine its concentration in these waters. In this work, Absence of Gradients and Nernstian Equilibrium Stripping (AGNES) has been applied, for the first time, to determine [Zn2+] in estuarine waters. The AGNES method had a mean RSD of ±18%, a (deposition time dependent) limit of detection of 0.73 nM and a [Zn2+] recovery of 112 ± 19% from a certified reference material (BCR-505; Estuarine Water). AGNES results for 13 estuarine samples (salinity 0.1–31.9) compared well (P = 0.02) with Competitive Ligand Exchange Cathodic Stripping Voltammetry (CLE-AdCSV) except for one sample. AGNES requires minimal sample manipulation, is unaffected by adsorption of interfering species at the electrode surface and allows direct determination of free zinc ion concentrations. Therefore AGNES results can be used in conjunction with ecotoxicological studies and speciation modelling to set and test compliance with water quality standards. 相似文献

The free metal ion concentration and the dynamic features of the metal species are recognized as key to predict metal bioavailability and toxicity to aquatic organisms. Quantification of the former is, however, still challenging. In this paper, it is shown for the first time that the concentration of free copper (Cu2+) can be quantified by applying AGNES (Absence of Gradients and Nernstian equilibrium stripping) at a solid gold electrode. It was found that: i) the amount of deposited Cu follows a Nernstian relationship with the applied deposition potential, and ii) the stripping signal is linearly related with the free metal ion concentration. The performance of AGNES at the vibrating gold microwire electrode (VGME) was assessed for two labile systems: Cu-malonic acid and Cu-iminodiacetic acid at ionic strength 0.01 M and a range of pH values from 4.0 to 6.0. The free Cu concentrations and conditional stability constants obtained by AGNES were in good agreement with stripping scanned voltammetry and thermodynamic theoretical predictions obtained by Visual MinteQ. This work highlights the suitability of gold electrodes for the quantification of free metal ion concentrations by AGNES. It also strongly suggests that other solid electrodes may be well appropriate for such task. This new application of AGNES is a first step towards a range of applications for a number of metals in speciation, toxicological and environmental studies for the direct determination of the key parameter that is the free metal ion concentration. 相似文献

The electroanalytical technique Absence of Gradients and Nernstian Equilibrium Stripping (AGNES) has been extended by applying stripping chronopotentiometry (SCP) as the re-oxidation stage in the determination of the free concentration of Zn(2+), Cd(2+) and Pb(2+). This new approach, called AGNES-SCP, has been implemented with screen-printed electrodes (SPE) and the standard Hanging Mercury Drop Electrode (HMDE). Clear advantages of this variant have been shown: (i) the easy resolution of the peaks of different metals present in mixtures and (ii) the sparing of blanks. A rigorous computation of the faradaic charge along the SCP stage takes into account the contribution of other oxidants, which can be efficiently measured at the end of the deposition stage of AGNES. The free Cd concentration determined in an oxalate solution at pH 6 with an HMDE as the working electrode agreed well with values obtained with a Cd Ion Selective Electrode. The free metal concentration measured using an SPE for the system Cd and nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) at pH = 4.8 also conformed well with Visual MINTEQ results. 相似文献

AGNES (Absence of Gradients and Nernstian Equilibrium Stripping) has been implemented with screen‐printed electrodes (SPE) for the determination of the free concentration of Zn2+, Cd2+ and Pb2+. For SPE, the stripped charge is a suitable response function which does not require the second stage of AGNES to be under diffusion limited conditions. This property can be used in the avoiding of the interference of Pb on [Cd2+] determination. The proportionality factor between stripped charge and concentration of amalgamated metal depends on the volume of mercury and opens the way to a future calibrationless strategy. Zn and Cd complexation with oxalate at various pH‐values confirms the suitability of the developed methodology, which compares favourable with the standard one based on the Hanging Mercury Drop Electrode. 相似文献

Different experimental approaches have been suggested in the last few decades to determine metal species in complex matrices of unknown composition as environmental waters. The methods are mainly focused on the determination of single species or groups of species.The more recent developments in trace elements speciation are reviewed focusing on methods for labile and free metal determination.Electrochemical procedures with low detection limit as anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV) and the competing ligand exchange with adsorption cathodic stripping voltammetry (CLE-AdCSV) have been widely employed in metal distribution studies in natural waters. Other electrochemical methods such as stripping chronopotentiometry and AGNES seem to be promising to evaluate the free metal concentration at the low levels of environmental samples. Separation techniques based on ion exchange (IE) and complexing resins (CR), and micro separation methods as the Donnan membrane technique (DMT), diffusive gradients in thin-film gels (DGT) and the permeation liquid membrane (PLM), are among the non-electrochemical methods largely used in this field and reviewed in the text. Under appropriate conditions such techniques make possible the evaluation of free metal ion concentration. 相似文献

A flow-injection system is developed for Cu, Mn and Zn partitioning in seawater by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. The first approach is where the trace metal species are fractionated in situ, but analysis is performed by using a flow injection manifold in the laboratory. This operational mode is used for the determination of the dissolved labile metallic fraction and is based on the elution of this fraction from a minicolumn packed with a chelating resin containing iminodiacetic acid groups (Serdolit Chelite Che) loaded in situ with the sample. The second is used for the determination of total dissolved concentrations of trace metals. This last mode is based on the retention/preconcentration of total dissolved metals on the chelating resin after on-line sonolysis of seawater samples acidified with diluted nitric acid to breakdown the metal-organic matter complexes. The figures of merit for Cu, Mn and Zn determinations in both fractions are given and the obtained values are discussed. The fractionation scheme is applied to the analysis of coastal seawater samples collected in Galicia (Northwest, Spain). The results of fractionation showed that Mn and Zn are mainly in the labile fraction, while Cu was mainly present in the organic fraction. 相似文献

The study of Fe, Zn and Cd stable isotopes (δ56Fe, δ66Zn and δ114Cd) in seawater is a new field, which promises to elucidate the marine cycling of these bioactive trace metals. However, the analytical challenges posed by the low concentration of these metals in seawater has meant that previous studies have typically required large sample volumes, highly limiting data collection in the oceans. Here, we present the first simultaneous method for the determination of these three isotope systems in seawater, using Nobias PA-1 chelating resin to extract metals from seawater, purification by anion exchange chromatography, and analysis by double spike MC-ICPMS. This method is designed for use on only a single litre of seawater and has blanks of 0.3, 0.06 and <0.03 ng for Fe, Zn and Cd respectively, representing a 1–20 fold reduction in sample size and a 4–130 decrease in blank compared to previously reported methods. The procedure yields data with high precision for all three elements (typically 0.02–0.2‰; 1σ internal precision), allowing us to distinguish natural variability in the oceans, which spans 1–3‰ for all three isotope systems. Simultaneous extraction and purification of three metals makes this method ideal for high-resolution, large-scale endeavours such as the GEOTRACES program. 相似文献

Palladium salts can be used as a coprecipitation carrier for the preconcentration of trace elements from natural water prior to their measurement by atomic spectrometry (AAS). The palladium is subsequently reduced by the introduction of hydrogen gas into the sample solution. The procedure is applied to the determination of Cu, Pb and Cd in seawater (enrichment factor 50) and synthetic water samples. Operating conditions have been optimized for the analysis of real samples. With the technique established an enrichment factor (500 fold) is feasible in synthetic samples. The recoveries of Cu, Cd and Pb from seawater are 95, 103 and 100%, respectively. This simple and rapid method can be applied in a wide pH-range and with complex matrices. 相似文献

We describe capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) for the simultaneous determination of bromide, nitrite and nitrate ions in seawater. Artificial seawater was adopted as the carrier solution to eliminate the interference of high concentrations of salts in seawater. The artificial seawater was free from bromide ion to enable the determination of bromide ion in a sample solution. For the purpose of reversing the electroosmotic flow (EOF), 3 mM cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) was added to the carrier solution. A 100 microm ID (inside diameter) capillary was used to extend the optical path length. The limits of detection (LODs) for bromide, nitrite, and nitrate ions were 0.46, 0.072, and 0.042 mg/L (as nitrogen), respectively. The LODs were obtained at a signal to noise ratio (S/N) of 3. The values of the relative standard deviation (RSD) of peak area for these ions were 1.1, 1.5, and 0.97%. The RSDs of migration time for these ions were 0.61, 0.69, and 0.66%. Artificial seawater samples containing various concentrations of bromide, nitrite, and nitrate ions were analyzed by the method. The error was less than +/-12% even if the concentration ratio of bromide ion to nitrite or nitrate ion was 20-240. The proposed method was applied to the determination of bromide, nitrite, and nitrate ions in seawater samples taken from the surface and the seabed. These ions in other environmental waters such as river water and rainwater samples were also determined by ion chromatography (IC) as well as this method. 相似文献

In the present work, the applicability of thin mercury film on a rotating disk electrode (TMF-RDE), to assess the free metal ion concentration by the absence of gradients and Nernstian equilibrium stripping (AGNES), is evaluated. The thickness of the mercury film and several AGNES parameters has been optimized. A nominal 16 nm film is chosen due to the higher signal (faradaic current) relative to the value of the noise (capacitive current). Due to the smaller volume to area ratio, the deposition time needed to reach a certain preconcentration factor (Y) is much shorter than in larger electrodes, like the HMDE. The limit of detection (3σ) for lead(II) is 7.4 × 10−9 M and 7.2 × 10−8 M for a Y of 5000 (deposition time of 150 s) and 1000 (deposition time of 100 s), respectively. A specific mathematical treatment is developed in order to subtract a corrected blank taking into account the degradation of the thin film (presumably, falling down of drops). The couple TMF-RDE/AGNES is successfully applied for speciation purposes in the systems Pb(II)-latex nanospheres and Pb(II)-IDA (iminodiacetic acid), where the stability constants calculated for both systems agree with values reported in the literature. 相似文献

Nuclear analytical techniques namely fission track technique using solid state nuclear track detector (SSNTD) and instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) have been standardized and applied for quantification of low uranium concentrations in liquid samples such as feed, elute and brine and solid sorbent samples respectively. The quantification of uranium is required for its recovery study from seawater, which is one of the potential sources of uranium. The uranium concentration of a liquid sample obtained by SSNTD method was compared with the other well established conventional techniques like ICP-MS, ICP-AES, adsorptive stripping voltametry and alpha spectrometry. INAA was applied for uranium concentration determination in the radiation grafted polyamidoxime sorbent samples. 相似文献

A sensitive method for the preconcentration and determination of trace amounts of Co, Cu and Zn by energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (EDXRF) has been developed. The method is based on the fact that 4-(2-pyridylazo)-resorcinol (PAR) loaded Dowex anion-exchange resin (PAR-resin) can effectively adsorb Co, Cu and Zn at pH 9.0 to form PAR-metal complexes. The detection limits for Co, Cu and Zn were 1.53, 0.31 and 0.21 ppb, respectively. The precisions for five replicate measurements of the three metals were 3.4, 2.7 and 2.1% RSD, and the calibration curves were linear up to 75 microg with correlation coefficients of 0.9975, 0.9980 and 0.9985, respectively. The method was successfully applied for the simultaneous determination of Co, Cu and Zn in seawater samples at ppb levels. 相似文献

Summary A new analytical procedure for total carbon dioxide in seawater was developed: a capillary-type isotachophoresis which applied a tubular microporous PTFE membrane as a preliminary enrichment was used. Carbon dioxide was generated by adding sulfuric acid to seawater samples, permeated through a tubular microporous PTFE membrane and dissolved in sodium hydroxide solution for the separation from large amounts of coexisting anions, such as chloride and sulfate ions. A linear working curve was obtained for artificial seawater samples containing up to 40 mg/l of total carbon dioxide. The proposed method was applied to the determination of total carbon dioxide in surface and bottom seawater samples. Concentrations of the total of free carbon dioxide and carbonic acid, hydrogencarbonate and carbonate ions in these samples were calculated from the concentration of total carbon dioxide, temperature, pH and salinity of samples measured in situ.

Zinc ions form a yellow complex with di-2-pyridyl ketone salicyloylhydrazone (DPKSH). This complex showed maximum absorption at 376 nm, and it was used to develop spectrophotometric flow injection methods for Zn(II) determination in different samples. Two types of flow systems were proposed. In the first system, a linear analytical curve was obtained in a concentration range from 0.217 to 4.60 mg L(-1) Zn(II), with a detection limit of 48.8 microg L(-1). In the second system, a minicolumn packed with an anion exchanger resin was used to concentrate Zn(II) as a chlorocomplex, and a linear analytical curve within a concentration range from 0.0824 to 2.06 mg L(-1) Zn(II) was obtained, having a detection limit of 13.9 microg L(-1). The developed methods were applied to biological and pharmaceutical samples, and a great compliance was observed by comparing the results with ones obtained by an atomic absorption technique. 相似文献

Different atmospheric aerosol samples were collected on three types of filters. Disks of both loaded and clean areas of each kind of filter were investigated by XRF, PIXE and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) methods. The blank concentration values of the elements Al, Si, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Br and Pb in the three types of fiters are discussed. It is found that for trace elemental analysis, the Nuclepore membrane filters are the most suitable for sampling. These have much lower blank element concentration values than the glass fibres and ash free filters. It was found also that the PIXE method is a more reliable analytical technique for atmospheric aerosol particles than the other methods. 相似文献

Summary Iron separation is described from liquid samples with a high concentration of ions that enables simple determination of 55Fe. One of the described methods consists of iron precipitation from a large volume seawater by sodium hydroxide and/or ammonium
carbonate and separation from other elements (Ca, Sr, Cu, Mg, etc.) on a TRU column with 4M HCl or 8M HNO3. In the other procedure iron is separated directly from a mixture of seawater samples and HCl on a TRU column. In both methods,
the iron recovery is almost 100%. After separation, 55Fe is determined by counting with a liquid scintillation counter. The binding of Fe and Zn on TEVA, U/TEVA and TRU resins
from seawater solutions of HCl and HNO3depends on the type of the resin, concentration of acid and other ions. Iron and zinc can be separated from seawater on a
U/TEVA column with 2M HCl. 相似文献
