Abstract A new sensitive and low-cost method that combines continuous acid extraction, online preconcentration, and flame atomic absorption spectrometry for cadmium determination at g levels in solid and semisolid milk products is described. A continuous ultrasound-assisted extraction system is used to carry out the dynamic acid extraction step. The acid extract is preconcentrated online on a minicolumn packedwith a chelating resin (Chelite P,with aminomethylphosphoric acid groups), and the retained cadmium is elutedwith hydrochloric acid and continuously monitored by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. An experimental design (Plackett-Burman 263/16) is used to optimize the continuous extraction and the preconcentration step. The method allowed a total sampling frequency of 28 samples/h. A good precision of the whole procedure (3.0% relative standard deviation) for a cheese sample containing 0.103 0.004 g/g Cd (dry mass), a high enrichment factor (20.5), and detection and quantification limits of 0.014 and 0.067 g/g, respectively, for a 60 mg of sample were obtained with this methodology. The method was successfully applied to the determination of trace amounts of cadmium in solid and semisolid milk products, such as cheese and yogurt samples.
