RESUMEN
An effervescent tablet-assisted switchable solvent based liquid phase microextraction (EA-SS-LPME) was developed for multi-element determination of Pb and Cd in various samples using high-resolution continuum source flame atomic absorption spectrometry (HR-CS-FAAS). The effervescent tablets were used for improving the extraction efficiency. Triethylamine as a hydrophobic solvent was switched to protonated triethylamine carbonate by CO2 and used to extract dithizone complexes from samples. Calibration linearities were obtained from 0.06 to 10.0 mg L-1 (Pb) and 0.02 to 1.50 mg L-1 (Cd). LODs of the proposed method were 0.0195 (Pb) and 0.0068 (Cd). LOQs were 0.0649 mg L-1 (Pb) and 0.0228 mg L-1 (Cd) with %RSDs of 1.25%-1.69% (Pb) and 1.07%-1.64% (Cd). The proposed method was applied for the determination of Pb and Cd in water and canned food samples. The spiked recoveries were 82.3-119.0% (Pb) and 81.7-120.0% (Cd). In addition, the PF was 3.3, with EF at 1.4 (Pb) and 2.6 (Cd) obtained after extraction for under 8 min.

Magnetic dispersive solid phase extraction (MdSPE) was developed to determine the concentration of lead (Pb) in real water samples, while graphene oxide-magnetite-dithizone (GO-Fe3O4-DTZ) from the used graphite tubes (recycled graphite) of electrothermal technique was simply employed as a new sorbent to improve extraction efficiency, separated by external magnetic field and analyzed with FAAS. The synthesized sorbent was evaluated for its surface property, functional group and surface morphology by Zeta potential, Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR), and scanning electron microscope (SEM), respectively. The relevant measurement parameters, such as pH, extraction time, type and concentration of eluent, sample volume and reusability, were optimized. Under the optimal conditions, preconcentration factor was 13.33. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) obtained were 0.070 and 0.23 mg/L, respectively. The relative standard deviation (%RSD) was 3.41%. Recovery values were 90.1 - 123%. In addition, the robustness of the method was affirmed in terms of tolerance limit obtained from interference studies.
RESUMEN
A new and simple two-step SFODME using 4-nitro-o-phenylenediamine (4-NOPD) as a chelating agent was developed for mercury speciation in water and fish samples by ETAAS. For the first step, methylmercury was extracted into 1-undecanol and for the second step, the Hg(II) remaining in the sample solution was complexed with 4-NOPD and then extracted into 1-undecanol. Under the optimized conditions, the calibration graphs of Hg(II) and methylmercury were linear in the range of 0.83-8.0⯵gâ¯L-1 and 0.78-8.0⯵gâ¯L-1, with the LOD of 0.25⯵gâ¯L-1 and 0.24⯵gâ¯L-1 and the enrichment factor were 25.7 and 32.2, respectively. The %RSDs was in the range of 2.0-4.4% at concentrations of 0.5 and 4.0⯵gâ¯L-1 (nâ¯=â¯5). The proposed method was successfully applied to mercury speciation in water and fish samples. The accuracy of method, tested by the analysis of SRM 1566b and DORM-4 was in good agreement with the certified values.

A new preconcentration method using solid phase extraction (SPE) was developed by immobilizing dithizone (DZ) and 1,4-diphenylsemicarbazide (DPC) on oxidative activated carbon and then using this for the speciation and preconcentration of mercury species (Hg(II) and MeHg(I)) by flow injection cold vapor atomic absorption spectrometry (FI-CVAAS). The SPE experimental conditions were investigated including pH, amount of adsorbent and flow rate. The elution parameters and effect of foreign ions were also elucidated. Under the optimized conditions, the calibration graph was linear in the ranges of 0.015 - 3.0 µg L-1 of Hg(II), with a detection limit (LOD) of 0.0155 µg L-1, corresponding to three times the standard deviation (3SD, n = 20). The precision of the method, defined as percentage relative standard deviation (%RSD) for mercury was 1.25 - 3.79% at concentrations of 0.1 - 1.0 µg L-1, for which a preconcentration factor of 20 was obtained for Hg(II). The proposed method was validated by determining the mercury concentration in standard reference materials, and successfully applied to the speciation of mercury in several water and freshwater fish samples.

A novel method was developed by SAE-DLLME for chromium speciation in water and rice samples using 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone (TTA) as a chelating reagent by ETAAS. The speciation of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) was achieved by complexation of Cr(III)-TTA and the total Cr was measured after reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr. The calibration graph was linear in the range of 0.02-2.50⯵gâ¯L-1, with a detection limit of 0.0052⯵gâ¯L-1. The %RSD was in range of 2.90-3.30% at 0.5, 1.5 and 2.5⯵gâ¯L-1 of Cr(III), nâ¯=â¯5 and the EF was 54.47. The method was applied to chromium speciation and total chromium determination in real samples and gave recoveries in the range of 96.2-103.5% and 97.1-102.7% for Cr(III) and Cr(VI) in water samples and 93.7-103.5% of total Cr in rice samples. The accuracy of the method was evaluated by analysis of SRM 1573a with good agreement compared to the certified value.

A method for the determination of cadmium in herb samples based on solidified floating organic drop microextraction (SFODME) using 1-(2-Pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN) as a chelating reagent and detection by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) was developed in the present work. The effects of pH, extraction solvent, extraction time, stirring rate, and extraction temperature were investigated. Under the optimized conditions, the calibration graph was linear in the range of 0.017-3.0µgL-1, with a detection limit (LOD) of 0.0052µgL-1. The relative standard deviation (%RSD) for 6 replicate measurements of 1.0µgL-1 cadmium was ±2.67%. The method was applied to the analysis of 10 types of Thai herb samples. Percentage recoveries were in the range 94.5-110.2%. It was found that cadmium concentrations in all Thai herb samples were less than the maximum residue level.
