Determination of Organic and Inorganic Selenium Species Using HPLC-ICP-MS Application
نویسندگان
چکیده
A methodology based on coupling isocratic high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) with optimized collision/reaction cell conditions has been developed for the simultaneous analysis of organic and inorganic selenium species in natural water samples. Selenium concentrations found in total and speciation analysis of a number of water samples showed good agreement. Because HPLC-ICP-MS coupling is easily automated, the method can be considered robust and applicable to the routine monitoring of selenium species in environmental and nutritional samples.

Selenium and selenium species in feeds and muscle tissue of Atlantic salmon.
Selenium (Se) is an essential element for animals, including fish. Due to changes in feed composition for Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), it may be necessary to supplement feeds with Se. In the present work, the transfer of Se and Se species from feed to muscle of Atlantic salmon fed Se supplemented diets was studied. Salmon were fed basal fish feed (0.35 mg Se/kg and 0.89 mg Se/kg feed), or fee...
متن کاملReversed-phase liquid chromatography with mixed ion-pair reagents coupled with ICP-MS for the direct speciation analysis of selenium compounds in human urine
A sensitive and robust method for the determination of five inorganic and organic Se species in human urine by reversed-phase liquid chromatography with mixed ion-pair reagents coupled with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HPLC-ICP-MS) is described in this paper. A good separation for anionic, cationic and neutral Se species, namely selenate [Se(VI)], selenourea (SeUr), selenomethi...
متن کاملChromatographic speciation of anionic and neutral selenium compounds in Se-accumulating Brassica juncea (Indian mustard) and in selenized yeast.
Selenium-accumulating plants such as Brassica juncea (Indian mustard) concentrate the element in plant shoots and roots. Such behavior may provide a cost-effective technology to clean up contaminated soils and waters that pose major environmental and human health problems (phytoremediation). Such ability to transform selenium into bioactive compounds has important implications for human nutriti...
متن کاملHigh-performance liquid chromatography of selenium compounds utilizing perfluorinated carboxylic acid ion-pairing agents and inductively coupled plasma and electrospray ionization mass spectrometric detection.
Increasing speciation demands in clinical chemistry, toxicology and nutrition have made the determination of the total elements in a sample inadequate; the amount of an element and the chemical forms in which it is present need to be known. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was used after high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) separation, as was electrospray ionizati...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the biological and chemical response of Allium cepa L. exposed to inorganic selenium compounds. Besides the investigation of the total content of selenium as well as its chemical speciation, the Allium test was used to evaluate the growth of onion roots and mitotic activity in the roots' meristem. The total content of selenium was determined by inductively ...
