Determination of trace lead in chinese herbs by derivative flame atomic absorption spectrometry using an atom-trapping technique.

A simple and sensitive method is described for the determination of trace lead in Chinese herbs by derivative atom trapping flame atomic absorption spectrometry (D-AT-FAAS) with a modified water-cooled quartz atom-trapping tube. The effects that influence the sensitivity of the derivative method, such as the trap position, the flame conditions and the collection time, were studied. The characteristics of the derivative atom trapping-atomic absorption signal and the linear nature of the working curve were investigated. The sensitivity of the derivative method is 2 or 3 orders of magnitude higher than that of FAAS, and the detection limit improved by 1 or 2 orders of magnitude. Satisfactory recoveries of 93.0-108.0% for lead were obtained by determining several Chinese herbs with a relative standard derivation range of 2.9 to 4.2%.

Determination of copper in milk powder by electrothermal atomic absorption and atomic emission spectrometry

Summary Electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETA-AAS) and atomic emission spectrometry (ETA-AES) have been applied to the determination of copper in powdered milk. A homogeneous dispersion procedure for the preparation of the milk powder is described which was found to be simple, rapid and less susceptible to contamination than dry ashing or wet digestion methods. Both ETA-AAS and ETA-AES techniques were found to provide satisfactory results using conventional tube wall atomisation only when the method of standard additions was employed. The application of graphite probe atomisation in ETA-AES and ETA-AAS allowed the development of direct methods for the determination of copper in milk powder using aqueous standard calibration curves. The accuracy of the probe ETA-AAS method was confirmed using new reference materials prepared by the EEC Community Bureau of Reference. Acceptable agreement was obtained for the other procedures using a commercial milk powder sample with a copper content of 6.0g g^–1.     

Determination of aluminium and chromium in serum by atomic absorption spectrometry

Summary The optimal conditions for the determination of aluminium and chromium in blood serum are proposed. Several sample pretreatment procedures for the purpose are compared. The best results are obtained by sample dilution with nitric acid (0.1 mol/l) and addition of Mg(NO₃)₂ as modifier with a magnesium concentration of 0.2 mg/ml. This procedure has been used for studying the intestinal intake of aluminium by patients after oral administration of aluminium compounds.     

Determination of zinc and copper in human hair by slurry sampling employing sequential multi-element flame atomic absorption spectrometry

The present work proposes a direct method based on slurry sampling for the determination of zinc and copper in human hair samples by multi-element sequential flame atomic absorption spectrometry. The slurries were prepared by cryogenic grinding and sonication of the samples. The optimization step was performed using univariate methodology and the factors studied were: nature and concentration of the acid solution, amount sample/slurry volume, sonication time, and particle size. The established experimental conditions are the use of a sample mass of 50 mg, 2 mol L^− 1 nitric acid solution, sonication time of 20 min and slurry volume of 10 mL. Adopting the optimized conditions, this method allows the determination of zinc and copper with detection limits of 88.3 and 53.3 ng g^− 1, respectively, and precision expressed as relative standard deviation (RSD) of 1.7% and 1.6% (both, n = 10) for contents of zinc and copper of 100.0 and 33.3 μg g^− 1, respectively. The accuracy was checked and confirmed by analysis of two certified reference materials of human hair. The procedure was applied for the determination of zinc and copper in two human hair samples. The zinc and copper contents varied from 100.0 to 175.6 and from 3.2 to 32.8 μg g^− 1, respectively. These samples were also analyzed after complete digestion in a closed system and determination by FAAS. The statistical comparison by t-test (95% confidence level) showed no significant difference between these results.

Determination of chromium in human serum by electro-thermal atomic absorption spectrometry

An accurate and sensitive method for serum chromium determinations by graphite-furnace atomic absorption spectrometry is described. Samples containing a small amount of magnesium nitrate as an ashing aid/matrix modifier are lyophilized and dry-ashed in silanized quartz tubes; the residue is dissolved in 0.1 M HCl. Because of the very low levels of chromium in serum, strict contamination control measures must be used throughout the procedures for collection, storage, preparation and quantitation. Standard curves are prepared by using a bovine serum pool, which also serves as a quality control measure. The uniform nature of sera obviates the need to use the method of standard additions. The detection limit of the method is about 0.03 ng ml^?1 Cr and the accuracy of the method is evaluated by comparison with stable-isotope-dilution mass spectrometry.     

Determination of copper in sulfide minerals by Zeeman electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry

A method for the determination of copper in some sulfide minerals (lorandite, realgar, orpiment, marcasite, stibnite, galenite and sphalerite) by Zeeman electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry is presented. After the dissolution of samples, copper was extracted with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate into different organic solvents (carbon tetrachloride, chloroform and methylisobutyl ketone) at pH 11.0–12.0. The procedure was verified by standard addition. The standard deviation (SD) for 0.5 ng Cu is 0.01 ng, the relative standard deviation ranges from 3.5 to 5.5% and the detection limit of the method, calculated as 3 SD of the blank, was found to be 0.05 μg · g^–1.     

Determination of lithium in human serum by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry

An efficient method was developed for the determination of nanogram levels of lithium in biological samples. Serum samples from human subjects from southeastern Spain, treated or not treated with lithium carbonate, were analyzed by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry. The samples were previously treated with a matrix modifier consisting of 0.1% Triton X-100 and injected through a graphite tube with L'vov platform. The Li concentrations measured by the procedure described for the 3 certified reference samples used were not significantly different (p > 0.05) than certified levels. Sample recoveries and variability during several days, with coefficients of variation from 4.00 to 14.8%, demonstrated the reliability and accuracy of this technique. Mean Li concentration determined in the serum of individuals with psychiatric disorders treated with Li (n = 117, 5.077 +/- 1.795 microg Li/mL) was significantly higher (p < 0.001) than that in individuals not treated with Li (n = 24, 1.902 +/- 2.054 ng Li/mL).

Determination of manganese in serum and urine by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry

Manganese is determined in serum and urine by graphite-furnace atomic absorption spectrometry after dilution (1 + 1) with distilled water. Simple aqueous standards are used for calibration. Background absorption from the matrix is decreased by attention to the heating programme, sample dilution and gas flow-rate during atomisation. Remaining background absorption is removed by a deuterium-arc background correction system. To obtain accurate results, great care is needed in collecting samples to avoid contamination. Blood is collected through a plastic cannula, because stainless steel needles introduce considerable contamination. The mean normal concentration of manganese in serum was found to be 0.58 μg l^?1 (it- = 9) which is in agreement with other literature values. For urine, the mean normal concentration found was 0.7 μg l^?1 (it- = 16). Patients on total parenteral nutrition with manganese supplements show elevated serum and urine manganese concentrations.

Summary A comparison of performance characteristics of ICAP-AES and ETA-AAS experienced in analyzing Cu and Zn in blood serum is described. Accuracy and precision were evaluated by a statistical procedure permitting graphical representation of the results. It was concluded that ETA-AAS is very suitable for monitoring and screening purposes in toxicology and clinical chemistry whereas ICAP-AES is to be preferred when more precise determinations are required.

Determination of copper in glasses by flame atomic absorption and plasma emission spectrometry

Summary Ground samples (150m, 0.5 g) are decomposed in a mixture of HF and HNO₃ acids followed by evaporation to dryness, dissolution of the residue in dilute HNO₃ acid, and dilution to 50 ml. Spectral interferences of 14 tested elements are negligible for AAS but in some cases (Nb, Ti, Zr) minor spectral corrections must be made for plasma techniques depending on the level of interferent and analyte. Nonspectral (matrix) interferences at the 1000g/ml interferent level are all less than 3.5% relative for AAS and less than 5% relative for ICP (except for Ca, Li, and Na where the effects are depressions of 7 to 10% relative). Matrix effects for DCP at the same interferent level are generally more pronounced and amount to enhancements of 5 to 15% relative for 11 of the 14 elements tested. Plasma matrix effects, especially alkali effects, can be compensated by the use of an alkali-aluminum buffer medium (1000g Na/ml plus 500g Al/ml as used in this study), a procedure which is most useful for the DCP approach. Copper can be determined down to 10 ppm in the original sample. A comparison of results shows AAS and ICP to be in good agreement with the DCP being slightly less accurate, although the differences in results may be of little practical significance. In terms of freedom from spectral and non-spectral interference, AAS was judged to have a slight advantage for copper.

Bestimmung von Kupfer in Gläsern durch Flammen-Atomabsorption und Plasma-Emissions-Spektrometrie

Zusammenfassung Gemahlene Proben (150m, 0,5 g) werden in einem Gemisch aus HF und HNO₃ aufgeschlossen, zur Trockne verdampft, in verd. HNO₃ gelöst und auf 50 ml verdünnt. Spektrale Interferenzen 14 geprüfter Elemente sind bei der AAS ohne Belang, aber in manchen Fällen (Nb, Ti, Zr) sind je nach der Größenordnung der Störfaktoren geringe spektrale Korrekturen erforderlich. Nichtspektrale (der Matrix zuzuschreibende) Störfaktoren in der Größenordnung von 1000g/ml bewirken weniger als 3,5% rel. Abweichung bei der AAS und weniger als 5% rel. bei ICP (inductively coupled plasma) (ausgenommen Ca, Li und Na, die eine Minderung der Werte um 7–10% bewirken). Matrixeffekte bei DCP (direct coupled plasma) bei gleicher Größenordnung des Störfaktors sind im allgemeinen stärker ausgeprägt und bewirken bei 11 von 14 geprüften Elementen Steigerungen um 5–15% rel. Plasma-Matrix-Effekte, besonders Alkali-Effekte lassen sich mit Hilfe eines Puffermediums (1000g Na/ml+500g Al/ml) kompensieren, was sich vor allem bei DCP bewährt hat. Cu kann bis zu 10 ppm in der ursprünglichen Probe bestimmt werden. Die Ergebnisse von AAS und ICP stimmen gut überein mit denen von DCP, die etwas weniger genau sind; diese Differenzen dürften aber praktisch nur wenig bedeuten. Abgesehen von spektralen Störungen erwies sich AAS für Cu etwas vorteilhafter.

Determination of traces of lead,cadmium and zinc in copper by an arc-nebulization and flame atomic absorption technique

Arc-nebulization (a thermal nebulization technique) is used to form an aerosol of cadmium, lead and zinc. An open arc chamber of simple operation and an ejector of high efficiency are described which are adaptable for use with any flame atomic absorption spectrometer. Limits of detection better by one or two orders of magnitude than those achieved by conventional flame a.a.s. methods were obtained viz., 43 ng Pb, 5 ng Cd, 7 ng Zn (equivalent to 0.7, 0.08 and 0.11 ppm, respectively, in copper). Calibration with matrix-free solutions was possible for lead and cadmium but not for zinc. The spectral interference of copper on absorbance at the most sensitive zinc line (213.856nm) and the efficiency of arc nebulization of cadmium are also discussed.     

Determination of copper, iron, manganese and zinc in river and estuarine water by atom trapping-flame atomic absorption spectrometry

Summary A simple method is described for the atomic absorption (AA) determination of Cu, Fe, Mn and Zn in river and estuarine water using two atom trapping techniques: a water-cooled dual silica tube and a commercially available double-slotted quartz tube mounted in an air-acetylene flame. Rapid, accurate analyses can be achieved using continuous aspiration. The concentration detection limits were 0.9, 1.5 and 0.3 ng ml^–1 for Cu, Mn and Zn, respectively, using a 2 min in situ preconcentration time with the dual silica tube atom trap and 4.0, 12.1, 2.0 and 1.2 ng ml^–1 for Cu, Fe, Mn and Zn, respectively, using the double-slotted quartz tube. The relative standard deviations are of the order of 2.9–6.9% for both techniques. The accuracy was assessed by analyses of NRCC SLRS-2 riverine and SLEW-1 estuarine water reference materials. Basic performance characteristics are also given for Ag, Bi, Cd, In, Pb and Tl using the dual silica tube atom trap.
