In-tube solid-phase microextraction with a hybrid monolithic column for the preconcentration of ultra-trace metals prior to simultaneous determination by ICP-MS
Microchimica Acta(2020)
摘要
The preparation of an amino-functionalized hybrid monolithic column (TEOS-co-AEAPTES) via one-pot co-condensation of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and N-(β-aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (AEAPTES) in a capillary is descibed. It was used as solid-phase microextraction (SPME) matrix followed by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for determination of trace metals. Under optimum conditions, the amino-functionalized SPME material can simultaneously retain Cu(II), Zn(II), Au(III), and Pb(II) with adsorption capacities of 148, 60, 81, and 64 μg m−1, respectively. Subsequently, these four metal ions can be quantitatively eluted using 1 mol L−1 HNO3 containing 1% thiourea. The retention mechanism of Cu(II), Zn(II), Au(III), and Pb(II) on the amino-functionalized hybrid monolith was explained as the combination of electrostatic and coordination interactions. With a 10-fold enrichment factor, the calibration curves were established in the range 0.5–100 μg L−1 with linear correlation coefficients above 0.9943 and the limits of quantitation were 0.05 μg L−1 for four target analytes. The limits of detection were 0.006, 0.012, 0.004, and 0.007 μg L−1 for Cu(II), Zn(II), Au(III), and Pb(II), respectively. The protocol was validated by analyzing Certified Reference Materials including standard sediment, soil, and nickel ore, and the results were in good agreement with their certified values. The relative standard deviations of the method were in the range 0.22–17.6%. The recoveries of the four metal ions in spiked samples were in the range 88.0–113.8%. Compared to direct ICP-MS determination, the proposed in-tube SPME procedure can effectively eliminate the interference from complex matrix, especially from those ores with very high content of main metal to improve the accuracy of analysis. Therefore the method is suitable for the simultaneous determination of ultra-trace Cu(II), Zn(II), Au(III), and Pb(II) in environmental and mineral samples.
