Microwave assisted digestion of atmospheric aerosol samples followed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry determination of trace elements

A microwave digestion method in a closed vessel was developed for the determination of trace metals in atmospheric aerosols using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). A recovery study for the elements V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Cd, Sb, and Pb was conducted using multi-elemental standard solutions, NIST 1633b Trace Elements in Coal Fly Ash, and NIST 1648 Urban Particulate Matter. A simple digestion method using only HNO3/H2O2 gave good recoveries (90%-108%) for all elements except Cr in SRM 1648, but yielded low recoveries for SRM 1633b. A more robust method using HNO3/H2O2/HF/H3BO3 yielded higher recoveries (82%-103%) for the lighter elements (V-Zn) in SRM 1633b, and improved the Cr recovery in SRM 1648, but decreased the Se recovery in both SRMs. A comparative analysis of aerosol samples obtained at a remote mountain location Nathiagali, Pakistan (2.5 km above mean sea level), and Mayville, New York, downwind from the highly industrialized Midwestern United States, was carried out using Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis (INAA) for the elements Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Zn, As, Se, and Sb. The simple digestion method yielded excellent agreement for Cr, Fe, Zn, As, Se, and Sb, with slopes of the ICP-MS vs. INAA regressions of 0.90-1.00 and R2 values of 0.96-1.00. The regressions for Mn and Co had slopes of 0.82 and 0.84 with R2 values of 0.83 and 0.82, respectively. Addition of HF/H3BO3 did not improve the correlation for any of the elements and degraded the precision somewhat. The technique provides sensitivity and accuracy for trace elements in relatively small aerosol samples used in atmospheric chemistry studies related to SO2 oxidation in cloud droplets. The ability to determine concentrations of a very large number of elements from a single analysis will permit source apportionment of various trace pollutants and hence strategies to control the sources of air pollution. This is particularly important as the health effects of particulate matter are increasingly recognized.     

Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis (INAA) and Inductively Coupled Plasma/Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) for Trace Element Biomonitoring using Mosses

Two analytical methods - instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) - were used for the trace element analysis of naturally growing mosses for a heavy metal biomonitoring survey. The techniques were applied to reference mosses to evaluate the feasibility, analytical variability, detection limits and accuracy. These parameters were evaluated using 563 mosses sampled in the 1996 French survey. All the elements of interest in the European program "Atmospheric Heavy Metal Deposition in Europe - estimation based on moss analysis" (As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Pb, Ni, V, Zn) were able to be determined by ICP-MS. INAA appeared suitable for the determination of As, Cr, Fe, Hg, V and Zn. The Cd, Cu, Ni and Pb concentrations determined by ICP-MS were preferred to the INAA results, because of increased feasibility or accuracy. The results provided by both methods on the French mosses were statistically compared for 14 elements. Significant linear correlation appeared for: Ba, Ce, Cs, La, Rb, Sm, Th and V. Among these eight elements, Ba, Cs, La and Sm concentrations determined by both methods exhibited a strong statistical similarity. The correlations obtained for As, Eu, Fe and Sb were not as strong and no correlation at all was observed for Co and Cr. These differences were attributed to instrumental factors (e.g. spectral interference occurred for both methods) or due to the sample preparation prior to ICP-MS. The consequences of such results on the regional trend evaluation of atmospheric heavy metal deposition were discussed.     

Semiquantitative Analysis of Biological Materials by Inductively Coupled Plasma–Mass Spectrometry

Semiquantitative analysis with accuracy of ±30 to 50% is a valuable tool for rapid screening of samples prior to quantitative determination of trace metals. In this study semiquantitative analysis software available with commercial inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) instrumentation is applied for rapid multielemental analysis, and the accuracy and precision of this semiquantitative analysis approach is evaluated with biological certified reference materials. Samples were prepared by high-pressure, high-temperature nitric acid vapor-phase digestion. For most elements the measured semiquantitative results are in the range of the certified values. With appropriate analyte solution dilution, the measured concentrations of the major elements (e.g., Ca) also agree with certified values. The accuracy is within ±10% for 28 element determinations that include 16 individual elements (Ag, As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, Rb, Sb, Sr, Tl, and Zn) and ±20% for 54 element determinations that include three more elements (Mg, V, and U) in eight certified reference materials including water. The method precision is 11 ± 11% (relative standard deviation,n= 65).

Studies on the use of XeF2 as digestion reagent

A digestion procedure was developed for the determination of selected elements (Al, Ba, Ca, Ce, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, La, Mg, Ni, Sr, Pb, Zn) in sediments using XeF₂. The use of XeF₂ has some interesting features but this reagent should be handled only under dry gas which is a severe limitation of the methodology. In a first step the sediment sample (0.1 g) is dried (120 °C) and digested by XeF₂ (1.5 g) in the vapor phase (190 °C; 9 × 10⁶ Pa). Then the dry residue is dissolved in aqua regia and the solution digested at high pressure once again (aqua regia digestion). Subsequently the digested solution is diluted with sub-boiling distilled water and is ready for the analysis by ICP-MS. The sediment standard CRM 320 was analyzed to verify the procedure. A comparison of the results with those obtained by the normally used fluoric acid digestion showed that the recovery rates of each investigated element agreed within a confidence interval of 95%, except Cr. The recovery rate of Cr was lower for the XeF₂ digestion than for the fluoric acid digestion by more than 5%. Further studies were focussed on the possible digestion of SiC by XeF₂ as first step for the trace element determination. In the gaseous reaction products Si could be detected by ICP-MS which gives evidence to a decomposition of SiC. A digestion procedure for small Si samples (0.010 g) was developed. Detection limits (DL) determined for selected elements of analytical interest (Al, Ca, Cd, Cr, Co, Cu, Fe, Mg, Ni, Pb) were between 1 to 12 ng/g. For most of the elements this is an improvement in comparison to the HF vapor phase digestion. The verification of the method was carried out with GFAAS.

Different Lubricating Oil Treatments for the Determination of Cu,Cr, Fe,Ni, Sb,Pb, and Zn by HR-CS FAAS

Abstract

Microwave-assisted acid decomposition, direct dilution in kerosene, and oil-in-water emulsion were evaluated as lubricating oil pretreatment procedures for Cu, Cr, Fe, Ni, Pb, Sb, and Zn determination by High-Resolution Continuum Source Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (HR-CS FAAS). For wet digestion, results were compared with those obtained by Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (FAAS). The ultrasound probe used in emulsions sonication contaminated samples with Cr, although better results have been observed for the other six elements in this condition. In general, recovery percentages ranging from 81–106% (Cu), 80–107% (Cr), 85–114% (Fe), 82–116% (Ni), 86–117% (Pb), 85–115% (Sb), and 81–114% (Zn) were obtained. The HR-CS FAAS showed to be faster and more sensitive than FAAS.     

Multielement trace determinations in A12O3 ceramic powders by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry with special reference to on-line trace preconcentration

The use of inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for the determination of trace elements in Al₂O₃ powders is reported. Special interest is given to a preconcentration of the trace elements by on-line coupling of chromatography to ICP-MS. This is based on the complexation of Co, Cu, Cr, Fe, Ga, Mn, Ni, V and Zn with hexamethylene-dithiocarbamate (HMDC), their preconcentration on a C18 RP column by reversed phase liquid chromatography and their elution with CH₃OH-H₂O mixtures. A direct coupling of the HPLC system to the ICP-MS has been realized by high pressure pneumatic nebulization using desolvation. With the Chromatographie method developed, removal of the AI by at least 99% was achieved. For the trace elements V, Fe, Ni, Co, Cu and Ga, high and reproducible recoveries (ranging from 96–99%) were reached. The method developed has been shown to considerably enhance the power of detection as compared with direct procedures, namely down to 0.02–0.16 ( for V and Fe, respectively. The possibilities of the method are shown by the determinations of V, Mn, Fe, Ni, Co, Cu, Zn and Ga at the μg/g level in A1₂O₃ powders. The accuracy of the method at the 0.06 to 9.0 level for Co and Fe, respectively, is demonstrated by a comparison with results of independent methods from the literature.     

Comparison of heavy metal analyses in hydrofluoric acid used in microelectronic industry by ICP-MS and thermal ionization isotope dilution mass spectrometry

An isotope dilution mass spectrometric (IDMS) method with the thermal ionization (TI) technique has been developed for the determination of trace impurities of Cr, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ag, Cd, Tl, Pb, Th, and U in high-purity HF (50% by weight) used in the semiconductor industry. The evaporation step of the HF solution was carried out in an apparatus which did not significantly contribute to contaminations of the heavy metals to be analysed. This apparatus allowed fast evaporation of the HF solution of up to 200 ml/h and therefore also a fast trace heavy metal/matrix separation was carried out. The evaporation step was also used in connection with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) when applying the isotope dilution technique and an external calibration for quantification, respectively. The detection limits for TI-IDMS were (in pg/g): Cr=30, Fe=400, Ni=70, Cu=20, Zn=1100, Ag=70, Cd=10, Tl=1, Pb=16, Th=3, and U=1. With ICP-MS in combination with the evaporation step, detection limits of less than 50 pg/g have been achieved for Cr, Ni, and Zn and of <5 pg/g for the other elements except Fe, which could not be determined in concentrations less than 100 ng/g. On the other hand, the detection limits were much higher when the HF matrix was not removed before measuring by ICP-MS. A comparison of the different ICP-MS methods (isotope dilution technique and external calibration for both HF evaporated samples and those with HF matrix) with the results of TI-IDMS has been carried out. An excellent agreement was achieved between the results of TI-IDMS and the two ICP-MS methods using the HF evaporation step, whereas the ICP-MS techniques without HF evaporation essentially deviated from these results. Fe was the only trace element of all investigated heavy metals which could only be analysed by TI-IDMS in high purity HF in a concentration of about 3 ng/g. Although ICP-MS with isotope dilution and external calibration resulted in comparable analytical data, the ICP-IDMS method has some practical advantages such as time-saving and more reliable results.     

Direct solid sampling electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry for the analysis of high-purity niobium pentaoxide

A direct solid sampling electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (SoS-ETAAS) method for ultratrace analysis of powdered niobium pentaoxide for Al, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Na, Ni and Zn has been developed. The elements K, Mg, Na and Zn could be determined without any chemical modification. However, in the determination of the elements Al, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn and Ni, serious matrix-caused non-spectral interferences and background occurred which made their determination impossible. This problem was remedied by conversion of the niobium pentaoxide matrix into the thermally stable niobium carbide by using methane atmosphere during the pyrolysis stage. The development resulted in establishing an extraordinary powerful method for the analysis of niobium pentaoxide in term of limits of detection, accuracy, simplicity and analysis time. Quantification was performed using calibration curves measured with aqueous standard solutions. The accuracy was checked by comparing the results with those obtained by ETAAS in analysis of slurries and digests of the sample. Due to almost complete freedom of blank and high applicable sample amounts (up to 15 mg), extremely low limits of detection (0.5–2 ng/g) were achieved.
