Abstract

An on-line bismuth preconcentration and determination system implemented with hydride generation inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (HG-ICP-AES) associated to flow injection (FI) was studied. Quinolin-8-ol and Amberlite XAD-7 were used for the retention of bismuth, at pH 4.5. The bismuth complex was removed from the micro-column with nitric acid. The detection limit value for the preconcentration of 100 ml of aqueous solution was 0.02 ng ml −1 with a relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) of 3.5%, calculated from the peak heights obtained. The calibration graph using the preconcentration system for bismuth was linear with a correlation coefficient of 0.999 at levels near the detection limits up to at least 100 ng ml −1. The method was successfully applied to the determination of bismuth in human urine samples.
