Abstract

In this study, a UV–Vis Spectroscopy-based method was developed for the determination of tin(IV) in epilobium parviflorum tea samples after preconcentration. The preconcentration process was carried out using the liquid-liquid microextraction technique. Before starting the analysis, optimization studies were carried out for the variables likely to affect the experimental results. As a result of the analyzes performed under optimum conditions, the detection limit of our method was calculated as 16.83 μg/L. The percent relative standard deviation value was calculated as 1.25% (n = 8) and linearity was found in the range of 10–1000 μg/L. Recovery experiments were performed on epilobium parviflorum tea samples using the matrix matching method. As a result of the analyzes made on teas belonging to three different brands, recovery results ranging from 92 to 117% were obtained.
