Standard dilution analysis in flow system: Sodium determination by flame atomic emission spectrometry

FIA automatic dilution system for the determination of metallic cations in waters by atomic absorption and flame emission spectrometry

Determination of lead and cadmium in water samples by cloud point extraction prior to flame atomic absorption spectrometry determination

Pb and Cd in water samples were determined by cloud point extraction (CPE) with sodiumdiethyldithiocarbamate (DDTC) as the chelating agent and octylphenoxypolyethanl (Triton X-114) asthe surfactant prior to flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) determination. The main factorsof affecting the extraction and detection processes were optimized. The preconcentration of 10 mL ofstandard soluti...

Determination of calcium, magnesium and strontium in soils by flow injection flame atomic absorption spectrometry.

Several procedures for the determination of Ca, Mg and Sr in soils have been compared on the basis of the accuracy of analysis of two NIST reference materials (Montana Soils SRM 2710 and SRM 2711). Samples were dissolved in a mixture of hydrofluoric and nitric acids in sealed vessels in a microwave oven and in teflon beakers on a hot plate. The digests obtained from both dissolution methods wer...

Determination of Trace Copper(II) in Food Samples by Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry after Cloud Point Extraction

A new method for the determination of trace copper(II) in food samples by Cloud Point Extraction(CPE) combined with Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry(FAAS) is presented and evaluated. The method is based on the fact that hydrophobic complex of copper(II) with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (DDTC) was formed at pH 6.0 and subsequently the hydrophobic complex was extracted into surfactant-r...

An Automatic Flow-Batch Standard-Addition Method for Sodium Determination in Alcohol Fuel by Flame Photometry

A agência brasileira que regulamenta a produção e comercialização de álcool combustível estabelece que a concentração de sódio deve ser determinada usando a fotometria de chama e curva analítica construída com soluções padrão preparadas em uma matriz que se assemelhe às amostras. Todavia, essa metodologia pode produzir resultados inexatos porque o álcool combustível apresenta uma variabilidade ...
