background: nickel is an important constituents widely used in different industrial processes for production of various syn¬thetic materials. for evaluation of workers’ exposure to trace toxic metal of ni (ii), environmental and biological monitor¬ing are essential processes, in which, preparation of samples is one of the most time-consuming and error-prone as¬pects prior to analysis. methods: ...

BACKGROUND The aim of this paper was the validation of a new analytical method based on the high-resolution continuum source flame atomic absorption spectrometry for the fast-sequential determination of several hazardous/priority hazardous metals (Ag, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn) in soil after microwave assisted digestion in aqua regia. Determinations were performed on the ContrAA 300 (Analyt...

A simple attachment to enhance the sensitivity of flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) is described along with some performance results and practical applications. An historical review is also presented.

in this work, a selective method for separation and preconcentration of nickel ions at trace level on modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes columns and determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (faas) has been developed. multiwalled carbon nanotubes were oxidized with concentrated hno3 and then modified with loading 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphtol. the sorption of ni(ii) ions was quantit...

dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction technique based on solidification of a floating organic drop (dllme-sfo) combined with flame atomic absorption spectrometry was developed for determination of thallium in water sample. an appropriate mixture of acetone and 1-undecanol was rapidly injected into an aqueous sample containing tlcl4- which forms an ion pair with brilliant green reagent and as...

Introduction: The therapeutic monitoring of lithium, through concentration measurements, is important for individual dose adjustment, as a marker of treatment adherence and to prevent poisoning and side effects. Objectives: Validate and compare two methods – atomic emission and atomic absorption – for the determination of lithium in serum samples. Methodology: Parameters such as specificity, pr...

Electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry has five major advantages for measurements of trace metals in biological materials, in comparison to measure­ ments by conventional flame atomic absorption analysis: (1) Trace metal contami­ nation is minimized by avoidance of preliminary chemical extractions and addi­ tions of reagents; (2) Sample volumes are small (1 to 50 /*1). The entire sample ...

A rapid, simple and sensitive magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) method was developed for the pre-concentration and determination of copper and cadmium ions. In this study, modified Fe3O4@Ag nanoparticles were synthesized and then ligand 2-isonicotinoyl hydrazine carbodithiolate (ITHCDT) was bonded to silver due to the formation of covalent bond of S-Ag. In this method, copper and cadmium i...
