In this study, a new solidified deep eutectic solvent microextraction (SDES-ME) method was applied for the speciation of Se(iv), Se(vi) and total inorganic selenium in the blood of children with leukemia from Kermanshah, Iran, prior to analysis by iridium-modified tube graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS).

Abstract In present study, we proposed the application of a deep eutectic solvent (DES) made up of choline chloride (ChCl) and oxalic acid (Ox) for the dissolution of different edible mushroom samples for the determination of selenium (Se) and arsenic (As) ions. Therefore, an innovative, green, novel, and inexpensive method based on ChCl–Ox as the DES was developed for the determination of Se and As ions in mushroom species by graphite furnace-atomic absorption spectrometry. The important analytical parameters were also optimized. The LODs for Se and As ions were found to be 0.32 and 0.50 µg/L, respectively. The LOQs for Se and As ions were found to be 1.06 and 1.65 µg/L, respectively. The RSD was observed to be less than 5% for both analyte ions. The accuracy of the developed method was confirmed by analyzing mushroom powder Certified Reference Material CS-M-3 (Boletus edulis). The developed technique was effectively useful for the determination of Se and As ions in different species of mushroom samples from Turkey.
