Abstract

Abstract The capillary-tube isotachophoresis technique was used to determine sodium(I), magnesium(II), calcium(II), strontium(II), and barium(II). The complex-forming equilibria between CyDTA and the metal ions were used to expand the differences among their effective mobilities. The mobilities of IIa metal ions decreased with increases in the pH of the leading electrolytes and in the CyDTA concentration in the leading electrolytes. The simultaneous determination of the above five cations could be performed when the pH of the leading electrolyte was adjusted at 5.5 or above. The relative standard deviations were 1.7–2.2% for determining 15.0–25.0 nmol of the cations when the pH of the leading electrolyte was 5.70. Magnesium(II) and calcium(II) ions underwent “enforced isotachophoretic” migration.
