A direct, rapid and continuous in vivo monitoring of diffusible calcium in the blood of living rabbits has been developed using microdialysis sampling coupled on-line with flame atomic absorption spectrometry. Microdialysates perfused through implanted microdialysis probes were collected with a sample loop on an injection valve and directly introduced into the flame atomizer by a carrier soluti...

a column of alumina modified with sodium dodecyl sulfate (sds) and dimethylglyoxime (dmg) was prepared for the preconcentration of trace nickel from water samples for flame atomic absorption spectrometry (faas) determinations. under optimized conditions (ph=7.0; flow rate: 20 mlmin-1) nickel was retained on the column. the nickel collected on the column was eluted with 5 ml of 1 m nitric acid. ...

High prevalence of zinc deficiency stemming frommalnutrition, gastrointestinal diseases and low dietary intake accounts for detection of zinc in plasma being a frequently requested clinical pathology assay. Serum and plasma zinc determination by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS) has previously been hampered by significant interfering species and intolerance to high pyrolys...

In this work, an simple and fast method based solid phase extraction for preconcentration and separation of trace amount of Fe(III) ions from water samples prior to its determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) was developed. The silver nanoparticles coated silica gel was modified by morin and then it was used as a adsorbent. The silver nanoparticle coated silica gel was prep...

A fast and straightforward procedure aimed at separating copper (Cu) ions from monosacharides and preconcentrating their traces before flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) measurements was developed, and its suitability was evaluated by the analysis of freshly ripened honeys on the content of this environmentally and physiologically relevant element. This procedure included the passage (...

In this study, a rapid flow injection-flame atomic absorption spectrometry for cyanide detection was developed. Different AgX (where X is Cl(-), Br(-), I(-) and N(3)(-)) solid-phase reagents (SPR) were tested for indirect determination of cyanide. In a single-line FIA system, the cyanide was allowed to react with AgX SPR, which in turn changed Ag ions in AgX to silver cyanide complexes in a sod...

The concentrations of zinc (Zn), iron (Fe) and copper (Cu) in both human milk and infant formula were determined using a new sample preparation method, by inductively coupled plasma - optical emission spectometry (ICP-OES) and flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). Human milk samples were diluted in ultrapure water. The infant formula of powder samples (suitable for an infant 1-6 months o...

a number of researches have been performed in the field of elemental analysis of fruitsfrom different areas of iran and there is a vast unstudied area in this field. in this study, seven mineral elements such as na, k, ca, mg, fe, zn and cu in the tree soil, citrus limunum juice of gorgan and iranshahr gardens and citrus limetta juice of gorgan and bandarabas gardens were determined by flame ph...

extraction of trace amounts of toxic heavy metals from complicated environmental matrixes is a  challenging task. the aim of this investigation is the comparison of the extraction efficiencies and other related experimental variables ( chemicals, effect of ph, potential interfering ions) on the determination of inorganic lead ( ) which is present in waste water of dye industries. compared techn...

the application of sulfur nanoparticles as an efficient adsorbent for the solid-phase extraction and determination of the trace amounts of pb and pd ions was investigated in environmental samples using flame atomic absorption spectrometry. effects of various parameters such as ph, flow rate of sample and eluent, type and concentration of eluent, sample volume, amount of adsorbent and interferin...
