Abstract: | The simultaneous determination of copper and zinc in human plasma and urine by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP MS) is discussed. The performances of a cross-flow nebulizer and a direct-injection nebulizer (DIN) were compared. Flow-injection-DIN-ICP MS analysis of clinical samples using 1-2 mul samples was optimized. Isobaric interferences were discussed and were demonstrated to be eliminated for the (65)Cu and most of the Zn nuclides. The need for standard addition to compensate for signal suppression in the case of some serum samples was indicated. Results obtained by ICP MS using calibration with aqueous standard solutions were found to be in good agreement with those obtained by flame AAS for a batch of real blood plasma and urine samples. The methods developed were validated by analysis of several standard reference materials. |
