[Characterization and optimization of the NaOH-EDTA extracts for solution 31P-NMR analysis of organic phosphorus in river sediments].
Optimization and mechanism of NaOH-EDTA extraction solutions were studied in phosphorus (P) pollution river sediments, which were Fe, Al-rich sediment, by solution 31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P-NMR). Different proportions of NaOH and EDTA showed different extraction efficiency on total P (TP) and organic P (Po) in the sediment. The concentration of Po in NaOH + EDTA extract was higher than that in NaOH extract. The mechanism was that the TP and Po were released under the conditions of EDTA chelating with Fe and Al. The concentration of TP and Po were the highest in 1.00 mol x L(-1) NaOH +75 mmol x L(-1) EDTA extract and 0.25 mol x L(-1) NaOH + 50 mmol x L(-1) EDTA extract, which were 3.88 mg x g(-1) and 0.24 mg x g(-1), respectively. The extractions of Fe, Mn, Ca, Mg, Al were increasing as the EDTA increased under the same NaOH concentration. Extraction efficiency of Fe, Mn, Ca showed negative correlation with the pH of the extracting solution (P < 0.01). Exponential relationship was found between the extraction of Al and the pH of the extraction solution (P < 0.01) because of the AlO2- and EDTA-Al complex. The quality of spectra of NaOH-EDTA extract was better than that of NaOH extract. Six P species were detected in different extractions, including phosphonates, orthophosphate, pyrophosphate, orthophosphate monoesters, phospholipids and deoxyribonucleic acids. Therefore, 0. 25 mol x L(-1) NaOH + 50 mmol x L(-1) EDTA was the optimization extraction solution for Po analysis in Fe and Al-rich river sediment by 31P-NMR.
