background: nickel is an important constituents widely used in different industrial processes for production of various syn¬thetic materials. for evaluation of workers’ exposure to trace toxic metal of ni (ii), environmental and biological monitor¬ing are essential processes, in which, preparation of samples is one of the most time-consuming and error-prone as¬pects prior to analysis. methods: ...

acacia nilotica (thorn mimosa) is used locally for various medicinal purposes by traditionalists and herbalists in northeastern nigeria. plants products have been used since ancient times in the management of various conditions. the bark of a. nilotica has been reported to be used traditionally to manage diabetes, dysentery, leprosy, ulcers, cancers, tumor of the eye, ear and testicles, indurat...

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. ...

a simple, sensitive and accurate method for spectrophotometric determination of dalacinphosphatehas been established. the method is based on the reduction of atomic absorptioncalcium ion by phosphate. because, there is a phosphate mole in every dalacin mole structureand with measurement of phosphate, dalacin is beyond measurement too. therefore, the reactionbetween acidic hydrolysis products of...

in the present study, the concentrations of three heavy metals including lead (pb), zinc (zn) and arsenic (as) in 72 different honey samples collected from north-western regions of iran were investigated using atomic absorption spectroscopy method. all metals were detected in 88.88% of the honey samples. the range of metals contamination in honey samples was 0.01 to 11.09 ppm. zn was the most a...

in this study, 60 composite samples of dill and onion from two different cultivated areas in khozestan province, iran, were collected and analyzed for the presence and determination of lead and cadmium by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. samples were burned according to aoac at 450 °c, and the residue was dissolved in nitric acid. lead and cadmium contents were determined using calibration...

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-rich ...

an efficient, rapid, simple, and highly selective dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction basedon solidification of floating organic drop (dllme-sfod), combined with flame atomicabsorption spectrometry was developed for preconcentration and determination of trace amountsof cobalt in water samples. in this method, an appropriate mixture of acetone and1-undecanol was injected rapidly into the aq...

a simple and rapid microextraction procedure based on dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (dllme) was developed for determination and speciation of trace amounts of chromium (cr) by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (faas). in the proposed approach, chloroform and methanol were used as extraction and dispersive solvents. a new schiff's base ligand, bis(2-methoxy benzaldehyde) ethylene d...

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...
