چکیده

A determinação de enxofre por espectrometria de massa com plasma acoplado indutivamente (ICP-MS) não é trivial, especialmente devido a intensas interferências espectrais causadas por íons poliatômicos como O2 , (OH)2 , NOH2 + e NO. Neste trabalho, espécies de argônio naturalmente presentes no plasma (padrões de interferência, IFS) são usadas para minimizar interferências espectrais na determinação de enxofre em microemulsões de biodiesel. Um método de calibração externa utilizando as razões entre os sinais analíticos e dos IFS é empregado em todas as determinações. Os limites de detecção (LOD) calculados para as razões 32/36, 34/36, 34/37 e 34/38 foram 4,0, 1,0, 1,0 e 0,8 mg L, respectivamente. Um material de referência certificado (Lubricating Oil, SRM 1848) e testes de adição e recuperação em amostras de biodiesel foram empregados para avaliar a exatidão do método. As recuperações variaram de 77 a 105% a partir do emprego de qualquer espécie IFS (Ar, ArH ou Ar).

Accurate determination of sulfur in biodiesel using Isotope Dilution-Triple Quadrupole ICP-MS (ID-ICP-QQQ)

The development of accurate, sensitive and fast analytical methods for the determination of low levels of sulfur (S) in organic matrices is important in several applications. In this note we concentrate on the determination of S in biodiesel, but the methodology is also applicable to the determination of S (plus other elements) in other matrices such as biological materials and S-containing drugs.

Determination of I/I isotope ratios in liquid solutions and environmental soil samples by ICP-MS with hexapole collision cell

The determination of I in environmental samples at ultratrace levels is very difficult by ICP-MS due to a high noise caused by Xe impurities in argon plasma gas (interference of Xe), possible IH2 1 interference and an insufficient abundance ratio sensitivity of the ICP mass spectrometer for I/I isotope ratio measurement. A sensitive, powerful and fast analytical technique for iodine isotope rat...

Determination of challenging elements in ultrapure semiconductor grade sulfuric acid by Triple Quadrupole ICP-MS

The relatively recent technology of collision/reaction cell (CRC) has become widely used with quadrupole ICP-MS (ICP-QMS) to remove polyatomic ions, which can cause problematic spectral interferences on analytes in complex matrices. By utilizing CRC, background equivalent concentrations (BECs) can be reduced to the ppt or sub-ppt level for almost all elements in semiconductor grade chemicals. I...

Determination of P , Si and S in acid digested lubricating oil using the Agilent 8800 Triple Quadrupole ICP - MS Application note

A new method is described for the accurate determination of silicon (Si), phosphorus (P), and sulfur (S) in lubricating oil samples using an Agilent 8800 Triple Quadrupole ICP-MS (ICP-QQQ). An optimized oxygen (O2) massshift method provided limits of detection for 28Si, 31P, 32S and 34S of 0.25, 0.01, 0.18 and 0.75 ppb, respectively. The method was successfully applied to the determination of S...
