  • speciation analysis of Mercury in seafood by using high performance liquid chromatography on line coupled with cold vapor atomic fluorescence spectrometry via a post column microwave digestion
    Analytica Chimica Acta, 2003
    Co-Authors: Lina Liang, Guibin Jiang, Jingtian Hu
    Abstract:

    Abstract An automatic system, based on the on-line coupling of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separation, post column microwave digestion, and cold-vapor atomic fluorescence spectrometry (CVAFS) detection, was proposed for the speciation analysis of four Mercury Compounds. Post column microwave digestion, in the presence of potassium persulfate (in HCl), was applied in the system to improve the conversion efficiency of three organic Mercury Compounds into inorganic Mercury. Parameters influencing the on-line digestion efficiency and the separation effect were optimized. To avoid water vapor and methanol entering into the atomic fluorescence detector, ice–water mixture bath was used to cool the microwave-digested sample solution. Four Mercury species including inorganic Mercury chloride (MC), methylMercury chloride (MMC), ethylMercury chloride (EMC) and phenylMercury chloride (PMC) were baseline separated within 13 min by using RP C18 column with a mobile phase of 50% (v/v) methanol containing 10 mmol l−1 tetrabutyl ammonium bromide and 0.1 mol l−1 sodium chloride pumped at 1.2 ml min−1. Seafood samples, composed of three gastropod species and two bivalve species from Yantai port, China, have been analyzed by the proposed method. Dogfish muscle (DORM-2) was analyzed to verify the accuracy of the method and the result was in good agreement with the certified value.

  • speciation analysis of Mercury in cereals by liquid chromatography chemical vapor generation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry
    Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2008
    Co-Authors: Lanfang Chang, Shiuhjen Jiang
    Abstract:

    A simple and rapid procedure for the separation and determination of inorganic, methyl, and ethyl Mercury Compounds was described using liquid chromatography (LC) followed by vapor generation inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (VG-ICP-MS). Well resolved chromatograms were obtained within 5 min by reversed-phase liquid chromatography with a C8 column as the stationary phase and a pH 4.7 solution containing 0.5% v/v 2-mercaptoethanol and 5% v/v methanol as the mobile phase. The separated Mercury Compounds were converted to Mercury vapors by an in situ nebulizer/vapor generation system for their introduction into ICP. The concentrations of NaBH4 and HNO3 required for vapor generation were also optimized. The method was applied for the speciation of Mercury in reference materials NIST SRM 1568a Rice Flour and NIST SRM 1567a Wheat Flour and also rice flour and wheat flour samples purchased locally. The accuracy of the procedure was verified by analyzing the certified reference material NRCC DOLT-3 Do...
