Chromium speciation in environmental samples by solid phase extraction on Chromosorb 108.

In the present work, a solid phase extraction system has been proposed for speciation of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) in the real samples. The procedure based on the adsorption of chromium(III) as dithizonate chelate on the Chromosorb 108 resin. After reduction of Cr(VI) by concentrated H2SO4 and ethanol, the system was applied to the total chromium. Cr(VI) was calculated as the difference between the total Cr content and the Cr(III) content. The influences of the analytical parameters including pH of the aqueous solution, amounts of dithizone, eluent type, sample volume and flow rates of the sample and eluent solution were investigated. No considerable interferences have been observed from other investigated anions and cations on the chromium speciation. The adsorption capacity of sorbent was 4.50 mg/g Cr(III). The detection limit of Cr(III) is 0.75 microg/L. The proposed method was applied to the speciation of chromium in environmental samples including natural waters and total chromium preconcentration in microwave digested Turkish tobacco, coffee and soil samples with satisfactory results. In order to verify the accuracy of the method, two certified reference materials (NIST SRM 1573a Tomato Leaves and RTC-CRM 025-050 Metals on Soil) were analyzed and the results obtained were in good agreement with the certified values. The relative errors and relative standard deviations were below 5% and 9%, respectively.

A solid phase extraction procedure for indium prior to its graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometric determination.

A procedure based on solid phase extraction of indium ions at trace level on Chromosorb 108 resin as bathocuproinedisulfonic acid chelate is presented for its preconcentration. The optimum pH value for quantitative sorption is 8.0-9.0, and desorption can be achieved by using 10.0 ml of 2 M HNO3. The effects of diverse ions on the sorption and recovery of indium have been studied. The capacity of sorbent was 3.78 mg In/g resin. Recoveries for indium from water samples were in the range 95-105%. The accuracy of procedure was confirmed by indium determination in certified reference materials. The method developed was applied with varying results to the analysis of real samples including metallic zinc with satisfactory results.

Enrichment/separation of cadmium(II) and lead(II) in environmental samples by solid phase extraction.

A preconcentration/separation procedure is presented for the solid phase extraction of trace cadmium and lead ions as their 1-(2-pyridylazo) 2-naphthol (PAN) chelates in environmental samples on Chromosorb-106 resin, prior to cadmium and lead determinations by atomic absorption spectrometry. The preconcentration procedure was optimized by using model solutions containing cadmium and lead ions. The influences of pH of the model solutions, amounts of PAN, eluent type and volume etc. were investigated. Also the effects of the matrix constituents of the samples were also examined. Separation of cadmium and lead from real samples was achieved quantitatively. The procedure presented was checked with the analysis of microwave-digested standard reference materials (IAEA-336 Lichen and SRM 1515 Apple leaves). The preconcentration procedure was applied for the lead and cadmium contents of the natural water samples, some salts with satisfactory results (recoveries >95%, relative standard deviations <8%).

Comparison of sample preparation procedures for the determination of trace heavy metals in house dust, tobacco and tea samples by atomic absorption spectrometry.

The effect of wet ashing, dry ashing and microwave procedure for the determination of trace metal levels was investigated in house dust, tobacco and tea samples by atomic absorption spectrometry. The study of sample preparation procedures showed that the microwave method was the best. The recovery of trace metals was very good and precision and accuracy were compatible with standard reference material. The relative standard deviations for all measured metal concentrations were lower than 10%. The digestions of HNO3/H2SO4/HClO4 (4: 1: 1) mixture for house dust, HNO3/H2SO4/H2O2 (2: 2: 2) mixture for tea and HNO3/H2O2 (4: 2) mixture for tobacco were very efficient.

Separation of gold, palladium and platinum from metallurgical samples using an amberlite XAD-7 resin column prior to their atomic absorption spectrometric determinations.

A simple and sensitive method for the separation and preconcentration of gold, palladium and platinum has been established prior to their atomic absorption spectrometric determinations. Analytes from 0.5 mol dm(-3) KI in a 2 mol dm(-3) HCl solution were recovered using an Amberlite XAD-7 column as halogeno complexes. The effects of some analytical parameters, including reagent amounts, sample volume and flow rates, on the quantitative recoveries of gold, palladium and platinum were investigated. The influences of some diverse ions were also studied. The proposed method has been applied for the preconcentration and separation of analytes from pure copper and anodic slime samples with satisfactory results (recoveries > 95%, relative standard deviations < 9.0%, relative error < or = 5%).

Speciation of antimony using chromosorb 102 resin as a retention medium.

The selective retention of the Sb(III) chelate with ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (APDC) on a column of Chromosorb 102 resin from a buffered sample solution including Sb(V) was used for the determination of Sb(III). The retained antimony was eluted with acetone. The retention of the Sb(III)-iodide compounds with sodium iodide on the Chromosorb 102 resin column from the same solution after reducing Sb(V) to Sb(III) by iodide in acidic solution was used to preconcentrate the total antimony. The retained antimony was eluted with 0.25 mol l(-1) HNO3. The antimony in the effluent was determined by flame atomic-absorption spectrometry. Also, the total antimony was determined directly by graphite-furnace atomic absorption spectrometry. The Sb(V) concentration could be calculated by the difference. The recoveries were > or = 95%. The detection limits of a combination of the column procedure and flame AAS for antimony were 6 - 61 microg l(-1) and comparable to 4 microg l(-1) for a direct GFAAS measurement. The relative standard deviations were <6%. The procedure was applied to the determination of Sb(III) and Sb(V) in spiked tap water, waste-water samples and a certified copper metal with the satisfactory results.

Solid phase extraction and spectrophotometric determination of trace amounts of thiocyanate in real samples.

A simple, selective and rapid method for solid phase extraction and spectrophotometric determination of thiocyanate using a manganese (III) tetrakis (p-sulfonatophenyl) porphyrin, [Mn (TPPS) OAC] bound to Amberlite IR-400 has been developed. The influence of pH, amount of solid phase, sample matrix, type and amount of eluting agent and flow rates i.e. variables affecting the efficiency of the extraction system were evaluated and conditions of the sample, eluting solution and active phase were optimized. The maximal capacity was found to be as 1.16 microg mL(-1) for 1200 mL. Thiocyanate ions can be eluted quantitatively with 8 mL 0.3 M ferric chloride. The enrichment factor was 150. The linear range of the determination is between 0.4-2.0 microg mL(-1) for preconcentration method with a limit of detection of 2.8 ng mL(-1). The method has been successfully applied for determination of trace amounts of thiocyanate in tap water, saliva sample and a synthetic mixture.
