Abstract
Abstract The use of 1,5-bis(di-2-pyridylmethylene) thiocarbono-hydrazide as a reagent for the extraction of Ni(II), Co(II), Zn(II), Fe(II), Cd(II) and Cu(II) into methyl isobutyl ketone has been studied, and a method for the determination of nickel at ultra-trace (ng/ml) level has been developed, by using electrothermal-atomization (graphite furnace) atomic absorption spectrometry involving a prior extraction with the cited extracting reagent. The chief advantage of the proposed method lies in its maximum allowed aqueous-to-organic phase volume ratio of 15. It has been successfully applied to the determination of nickel substrates in various biological samples.
