title: Interferences elimination in ion chromatography by inclusion of the interfering ion into the mobile phase-Analysis of fluoride in chloride rich dietary samples.
abstract: New approach to the chloride interferences elimination by addition of the interfering ion to the mobile phase is proposed and evaluated. Different eluents for the non-suppressed ion chromatographic analysis of fluorides in chlorides rich samples were tested and compared with eluent recommended by the column manufacturer. The limit of detection, linearity range and resistance to matrix effects caused by chlorides were the comparison criteria. The applicability of the selected eluent was demonstrated through the analysis of the edible salts and various tea samples. The employment of the proposed eluent shorten the time of the analysis since the only required preparation steps for edible salts were the dissolution and appropriate dilution of the samples. The recovery test was employed to verify the obtained results.
