Abstract

ABSTRACTA method for the determination of Co(II), Ni(II) and Pd(II) in aqueous samples by fabric phase sorptive extraction-high-performance liquid chromatography-UV detection (FPSE-HPLC-UV) is developed. A preconcentration step was necessary due to the trace level concentrations of these elements in aqueous samples. Sol-gel polytetrahydrofuran nanocomposite was selected as the sorbent. All major FPSE parameters were optimized. The limit of detection for Co(II), Ni(II) and Pd(II) morpholino dithiocarbamate complexes were found at much lower concentration level compared with earlier reported data with excellent reproducibility. The new FPSE-HPLC-UV method can be used for routine determination of these metal species in various aqueous environmental samples and in different alloys.
