Direct inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry analysis of trace elements in muscle tissues of hairtail using electrothermal vaporization with slurry sampling.
A procedure for direct determination of trace elements in muscle tissue of hairtail was developed using inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry and electrothermal vaporization with slurry sampling. Due to use of polytetrafluoroethylene as the chemical modifier, the vaporization behaviors of analytes from the slurry and the aqueous standard solutions were very similar. In this case, the aqueous standards could be used for the calibration of slurry samples. The main factors influencing this method were studied systematically. The detection limits for Cr, Ni, Zn, Cd, and Pb were 3.1, 10.5, 176, 6.9, and 83 ng/mL, respectively, and the relative standard deviations were less than 10%. The proposed method was applied to the determination of trace Cr, Ni, Zn, Cd, and Pb in hairtail samples with satisfactory accuracy and precision. A certified reference material of mussel (GBW 08571) was analyzed, and good agreement was obtained between the results from the proposed method and certificate values.
