Determination of Trace Level Iodine in Biological and Botanical Reference Materials by Isotope Dilution Mass Spectrometry
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method has been developed for the determination of trace level iodine in biological and botanical materials. The method consists of spiking a sample with 129I, equilibration of the spike with the natural iodine, wet ashing under carefully controlled conditions, and separation of the iodine by co-precipitation with silver chloride. Measurement of the 129I/127I ratio is accomplished by negative thermal ionization mass spectrometry using LaB6 for ionization enhancement. The application of the method to the certification of trace iodine in two Standard Reference Materials is described.

Improved measurement of iodine in food samples using inductively coupled plasma isotope dilution mass spectrometry.
A new ICP-MS method for the determination of iodine in food samples is presented. The method makes use of a new miniature cyclonic spray chamber and a concentric glass nebulizer that is designed for low sample uptakes and is operated in a self-aspirating mode. As a consequence the wash-out was accelerated over conventional systems. This configuration allows the direct determination of iodine in...
متن کاملMass Spectrometry Inorganic Trace Analysis by Isotope Dilution Mass Spectrometry-New Frontiers
Isotope dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS) is used extensively at NBS in the certification of elemental concentrations in Standard Reference Materials. It is regarded at NBS as a "definitive method," that is, a method of proven high accuracy. Since the theme of this symposium is accuracy in trace element analysis, it is appropriate to review the role IDMS plays in accurate inorganic analysis. Th...

Determination of niacin in food materials by liquid chromatography using isotope dilution mass spectrometry.
The availability of deuterium-labeled nicotinic acid makes stable isotope dilution mass spectromerty (MS) coupled with liquid chromatography (LC) an attractive option for the determination of the water-soluble B-vitamin niacin in food samples. A method was developed based on acid digestion, solid-phase extraction with a strong cation exchange column, and reversed-phase chromatography with a C18...
متن کاملDetermination of sulfur in fossil fuels by isotope dilution electrothermal vaporization inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry
The determination of S by solution nebulization quadrupole inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is dif®cult because of interferences from oxygen dimer ions. The large O2 z ion current from the solvent water is a serious interference at S, the most abundant of the four isotopes, and precludes its measurement. The isotopic composition of S varies in nature as a consequence of nat...
