Determination of methyl-and ethylmercury compounds using gas chromatography atomic fluorescence spectrometry following aqueous derivatization with sodium tetraphenylborate

Summary An analytical procedure is described for the determination of methylmercury and ethylmercury compounds in fish and sediment samples, using gas chromatography atomic fluorescence spectrometry following aqueous phenylation with sodium tetraphenylborate. The derivatization products were identified by gas chromatography mass spectrometry. The advantages of using phenylation with sodium tetraphenylborate over ethylation with sodium tetraethylborate are discussed. The validation of the analytical procedure was performed by analyzing standard reference material (DORM-2). Applications for the analysis of fish and sediment samples were carried out and compared to other techniques.     

Sample treatment selection for routine mercury speciation in seafood by gas chromatography–atomic fluorescence spectroscopy

A general analytical strategy for mercury speciation in seafood samples has been proposed to increase sample throughput. This consists of the initial determination of total mercury content, and then mercury speciation using gas chromatography coupled to atomic fluorescence spectroscopy. The appropriate sample treatment for mercury speciation is selected between a method based on aqueous ethylation with sodium tetraethylborate (Approach A: a rapid methodology for samples with methylmercury concentrations between 150 and 2000 ng g^?1) and another one based on the determination of organomercury chlorides (Approach B: a much more time‐consuming methodology, applicable to samples with methylmercury at 1.2–200 ng g^?1). Both procedures have been used together for the analysis of bivalves and fish samples. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Determination of mercury and methylmercury in seafood by ion chromatography using photo-induced chemical vapor generation atomic fluorescence spectrometric detection

A novel method based on photo-induced chemical vapor generation (CVG) as interface to on-line coupled Hg-cysteine ion chromatograpy (IC) with atomic fluorescence spectrometry (AFS) was developed for rapid determination of methylmercury (MHg) in seafood. Separation of inorganic mercury (Hg²⁺) and methylmercury(CH₃Hg⁺) was accomplished on a Hamilton PRP X-200 polymer-based exchange column with a mobile of 3% acetonitrile, 1% (w/w) L-cysteine and 20 mmol L^{− 1} pyridine and 160 mmol L^{− 1} formic acid, at pH 2.4 within 7 min. Once separated, both species are reduced by formic acid in mobile phase under UV radiation to convert Hg⁰ on-line, which is subsequently swept (by argon carrier gas) into an atomic fluorescence spectrometry (AFS) for measurement. Under the optimized experiment conditions, the detection limits (as Hg), based on three times the standard deviation of a standard solution, were found to be 0.1 ng mL^{− 1} for mercury and 0.08 ng mL^{− 1} for methylmercury, with an injection volume of 100 μL. The developed method was validated by determination of certified reference material DORM-2 and was further applied in determination of seafood samples.

Comparative study of microwave-induced plasma atomic emission spectrometry and atomic fluorescence spectrometry as gas-chromatographic detectors for the determination of methylmercury in biological samples

In order to attain a lower detection limit with the HS GC MIP analytical method (Head-Space Gas Chromatography with Microwave-Induced Plasma detection) recently developed for the analysis of methylmercury in biological samples, the quarter-wave Evenson-type cavity used until now was replaced by a TM₀₁₀ Beenakker-type cavity, which was used with both argon and helium as carrier gas. With an argon plasma, an eightfold increase in detection limit was gained compared with the argon plasma sustained by the Evenson cavity, while only a four-fold increase was gained with the helium plasma. In a second step of the study, the MIP detector was replaced by an AFS (atomic fluorescence) detector (CVAFS Model-2, Brooks Rand Ltd, Seattle, USA). With this AFS detector a detection limit of 1 ng methyl mercury per g biological tissue could be reached; i.e. measurements were 40 times more sensitive than those using the Evenson cavity. This detector has some other advantages compared with MIP detection: it is less expensive and easier to manipulate, while the same precision and accuracy are obtained. The use of AFS as detector in the headspace gas chromatographic system is therefore an important improvement for the analysis of methyl-mercury in biological samples.     

Speciation analysis of organoarsenical compounds in biological matrices by coupling ion chromatography to atomic fluorescence spectrometry with on-line photooxidation and hydride generation

The optimisation of an on-line decomposition based on UV photooxidation for the analysis of organoarsenic species by coupling cation-exchange chromatography and atomic fluorescence spectrometry with hydride generation, is described. In this study, special consideration is given to the compatibility of mobile phases with post-column treatments. Results show that the most commonly used mobile phase, aqueous pyridine solutions, decreases species conversion efficiency, leading to a significant loss of sensitivity. New fully-compatible chromatographic conditions are proposed to separate arsenobetaine, arsenocholine, trimethylarsine oxide and tetramethylarsonium ion within 20 min. The very low absolute limits of detection, 4-12 pg(As), allow speciation at trace levels. Analysis of a certified reference fish tissue (DORM-2) and other seafood samples (French and Chilean oysters and mussel) highlights the robustness and the accuracy of the optimised system.

Analysis of palytoxin-like in Ostreopsis cultures by liquid chromatography with precolumn derivatization and fluorescence detection

A rapid liquid-chromatography (LC) method is presented which uses fluorescence detection (FLD) for palytoxin analogues analysis in benthic dinoflagellates of the genus Ostreopsis. The amino-acidic reagent 6-aminoquinolyl-N-hydroxisuccinimidyl carbamate (AccQ) was used for fluorescence labelling followed by LC-FLD.The efficacy of the method is exemplified by comparison of the results of the quantification obtained by LC-FLD and the hemolytic assay performed for palytoxins for which a highly significant linear correlation was achieved (r² = 0.9118). The derivatized palytoxin analogues were determined in the range of 0.75-25 ng.The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination and quantification of palytoxin analogues in 14 samples from different strains of Ostreopsis from different locations (Western Mediterranean Sea, Canary Islands, Madeira Islands and Southern coasts of Brazil). To confirm the chemical structure of the toxins, samples were also analyzed by liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (LC-MS) with a system that has a poorer sensitivity when compared with LC-FLD detection and the hemolytic assay. The successful use of this method with dinoflagellates is a good indicator of suitability for other types of marine samples.     

Determination of mercury species in gas condensates by on-line coupled high-performance liquid chromatography and cold-vapor atomic absorption spectrometry

A method for the speciation of mercury in gas condensates is reported. Mercury(II) chloride (HgCl₂), methylmercury chloride (MeHgCl), phenylmercury acetate (PhHgAc) and diphenylmercury (Ph₂Hg) are separated by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using gradient elution. Prior to the determination, the organic ligands and the matrix were destroyed by oxidation with K₂Cr₂O₇. Mercury is detected with cold-vapor atomic absorption spectrometry (CVAA), where the mercury compounds are reduced to metallic mercury by a treatment with NaBH₄. In a continuous-flow system the concentrations of the reagents used are optimized using a modified simplex algorithm. Detection limits for mercury are at the 10 ng ml^?1 level. Analysis of multi-compound mixtures indicates that chemical reactions between HgCl₂ and Ph₂Hg and between MeHgCl and Ph₂Hg take place. The method developed was applied to the speciation of mercury in gas condensates and did not require use of any solvent extraction or chemical derivatization steps. In the gas condensates, mercury(II) compounds were found to be present at the 100 ng ml^?1 level.     

Elemental composition determination of organophosphorus compounds using gas chromatography and atomic emission spectrometric detection

The elemental responses for a series of alkylated and arylated phosphates evaluated were measured on an atomic emission spectrometric detector. The signals for carbon, hydrogen, chlorine, phosphorus and oxygen were used to determine the specifity of elemental response ratios to a particular compound structure and the dependence of response ratios on the amounts of the analytes. Variations of the response ratios, as well as the accuracy and variations of the stoichiometric values of the calculated empirical formulae, were evaluated. For this purpose, a test mixture with reference compounds was used. Determination of empirical formulae with acceptable errors of a few percent is possible if the calibrating reference substance is closely related — by structure, elemental composition, molecular weight and amount — to the compounds to be identified. Analyte amounts of at least 30 ng are required for efficient calibration.     

Simple oxidative pretreatment for determination of organomercury by cold vapour atomic fluorescence spectrometry

A simple and rapid method has been developed for the direct determination of organomercury in toluene extracts. The oxidative pretreatment, intended for cold vapour-atomic absorption/fluorescence spectrometry, involves the use of bromide/bromate reagent under strong acid conditions. The pretreatment is performed directly in a volumetric flask and avoids the need for back extraction and phase separation. Recoveries for methyl mercury additions to toluene, at the 2 g/1 level, ranged from 100–106%.On leave Xianjiang Environmental Research Institute, Urumqui, Xianjiang Province, Peoples Republic of China

Investigation of trialkoxysilane hydrolysis kinetics using liquid chromatography with inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometric detection and non-linear regression modeling

A novel approach is demonstrated for measuring rates of the consecutive acid-base catalyzed hydrolysis reactions of (3-glycidoxypropyl)trimethoxysilane (GPTMS) and (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) in dilute aqueous solution using liquid chromatography with inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometric (ICP-AES) detection. The hydrolysis reactions are monitored by sampling kinetic solutions in a timewise manner and performing liquid chromatographic separations of the parent silane and organosilicon hydrolysis products. The column effluent is fed into the ICP through a direct injection nebulizer for online monitoring of silicon atomic emission at 251.611 nm, producing a series of silicon chromatograms for each kinetic run. Reversed phase separations are effected using acetonitrile-water gradients and are complete in 6 min or less. The systematic changes in peak areas provide information from which the rate constants of the consecutive hydrolysis reactions (k₁, k₂, and k₃) are obtained by non-linear regression modeling. Using a quenching scheme, hydrolysis half-lives as brief as 3 min for the parent silane can be monitored. For each compound, a series of rate constants are obtained over a range of pH and buffer concentration, permitting estimation of the catalytic constants k_H3O⁺ and k_OH⁻ for the consecutive acid-base catalyzed hydrolysis reactions by multiple regression analysis.     

Speciation analysis of mercury in seafood by using high-performance liquid chromatography on-line coupled with cold-vapor atomic fluorescence spectrometry via a post column microwave digestion

An automatic system, based on the on-line coupling of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separation, post column microwave digestion, and cold-vapor atomic fluorescence spectrometry (CVAFS) detection, was proposed for the speciation analysis of four mercury compounds. Post column microwave digestion, in the presence of potassium persulfate (in HCl), was applied in the system to improve the conversion efficiency of three organic mercury compounds into inorganic mercury. Parameters influencing the on-line digestion efficiency and the separation effect were optimized. To avoid water vapor and methanol entering into the atomic fluorescence detector, ice-water mixture bath was used to cool the microwave-digested sample solution. Four mercury species including inorganic mercury chloride (MC), methylmercury chloride (MMC), ethylmercury chloride (EMC) and phenylmercury chloride (PMC) were baseline separated within 13 min by using RP C₁₈ column with a mobile phase of 50% (v/v) methanol containing 10 mmol l⁻¹ tetrabutyl ammonium bromide and 0.1 mol l⁻¹ sodium chloride pumped at 1.2 ml min⁻¹. Seafood samples, composed of three gastropod species and two bivalve species from Yantai port, China, have been analyzed by the proposed method. Dogfish muscle (DORM-2) was analyzed to verify the accuracy of the method and the result was in good agreement with the certified value.     

High-performance liquid chromatography determination of nitrated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by indirect fluorescence detection

A high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the analysis of nitrated polcyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (NPAHs) is reported. NPAH mixtures were pre-concentrated using solid-phase extraction and well resolved on a C(18) column. They were detected using an indirect method involving the quenching of the emission from the fluorophores 5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthol (5,6,7,8-THN-1-OH), 7-amino-4-methyl coumarin (Coumarin 120, COU-120) and 3-hydroxy-4-(2-hydroxy-4-sulfo-1-naphthylazo)2-naphthalene carboxylic acid (Calcon carboxylic acid, CCA). Linear calibration curves were obtained in the range 1.1 x 10(-9) to 1.1 x 10(-8) mol/L. Using COU 120 as the fluorophore, the detection limit was 2.9 x 10(-10) mol/L for 1-nitronaphthalene and 2.1 x 10(-11) mol/L for 2-nitrofluorene. Recoveries of NPAHs from spiked tap water samples were between 88 and 100%.
