Iron And Zinc

Abstract Water, chelate, and acid techniques were compared for the extraction of iron and zinc from fertilizer samples. The water and chelate extractions were studied to offer an alternative to the official final action acid extraction, 2.098(a)–(c); atomic absorption spectrophotometry was the determinative step. The results for 10 samples from 24 laboratories were examined statistically and were sufficiently reproducible for widespread use of the methods. Statistical treatment of the data from the proposed methods compared favorably with that from the official method. Both the water and chelate extraction techniques have been adopted as official first action, supplementary to 2.098.

Abstract A collaborative study was conducted on the 'atomic absorption spectrophotometric method for measuring the concentration of copper in alcoholic products. In this method, the samples are aspirated directly into the burner of the instrument, and the absorhance values are converted to ppm copper by reference to a standard curve. Data show good precision and are comparable to those obtained by the ZDBT method. It is recommended that the atomic absorption method be adopted as official, first action.

The Difference

Abstract An atomic absorption spectrophotometric (AAS) method was collaboratively studied by 8 laboratories from Africa, the United States, Australia, and Europe. The samples were dispersed in deionized water. After centrifuging and filtering, the water-soluble copper in the filtrate was acidified and measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometry, in an airacetylene flame, at 324.7 nm. The results from 7 laboratories were satisfactory and no unfavorable comments were received. Repeatability standard deviations ranged from 0.005 to 0.023, and reproducibility standard deviations ranged from 0.012 to 0.062. When compared with the bathocuproine method, the difference in bias between both methods is not significant. They were both adopted as full CIPAC methods, with the bathocuproine method as the referee method. Both methods have been adopted official first action.

Abstract A collaborative study was carried out to compare AOAC method 2.147-2.150 for determining sodium in fertilizers with the atomic absorption spectrophotometric (AAS) method. Twelve synthetic NPK samples, 6 pairs of blind duplicates (0.06-8.5% Na), were sent to 22 collaborators; a total of 13 sets of results were received and evaluated by the modified matched pairs technique. The AAS method showed better performance in samples with low sodium content and high potassium content. The AAS method has been adopted official first action for determining sodium in fertilizers.

Abstract An atomic absorption spectrophotometric method for determination of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) residues In pineapple juice was collaboratively studied by 9 laboratories. PDMS residues are extracted from pineapple Juice with 4- methyl-2-pentanone and the extracted silicone Is measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometry using a nitrous oxide/ acetylene flame. Collaborators analyzed 5 samples Including 1 blind duplicate. Reproducibility relative standard deviations (RSDR) were 13.1% at 31 ppm, 6.9% at 18 ppm, 14.8% at 7.9 ppm, and 16.1 % at 4.9 ppm PDMS. The method has been approved Interim official first action by AOAC.

Abstract The method studied involves acid digestion, dithizone extraction, and determination by atomic absorption spectrophotometry and polarography. This study consisted of 2 phases, with 10 laboratories participating in Phase I and 15 laboratories in Phase II. The 12 commodities studied (lettuce, potatoes, orange juice, shredded wheat, milk, sugar, eggs, fish, frankfurters, rice, beans, and oysters) were spiked at 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 ppm cadmium. Only 3 collaborators submitted polarographic results. There were no statistically demonstrable differences for the atomic absorption method between spiking levels, commodities, or laboratories. Coefficients of variation were acceptable. The atomic absorption spectrophotometric method for determining cadmium has been adopted as official first action.

Content of 16 essential elements was determined in three kinds of frankfurters by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The element content of frankfurter batter was compared with processed frankfurters. There were larger (P<0.05) amounts of sodium in beef; colbalt, manganese and sodium in chicken; and manganese, potassium and sodium in meat frankfurters (beef and pork) after processing. Chicken samples contained less (P<0.05) chloride and potassium after processing. All frankfurters studied were superior sources of iron and zinc and fair sources of potassium when compared to other foodstuffs. Element retention ranged from 80.9% to over 100%. Data suggest that processing had minimal effects on element loss.

Average Lead

Abstract Nineteen laboratories, using 6 different models of atomic absorption spectrophotometers and 4 different types of polarographs, participated in this collaborative study. The average lead recoveries from 6 paired samples at 1–2, 5–6, and 10–11 ppm levels were 97.7% by polarography and 100.7% by atomic absorption. The average standard deviations were 0.32 and 0.41 ppm, respectively, and the average coefficients of variation were 7.9 and 13.1%, respectively. With collaborators reporting on both methods, the results of the overall method average were 4.3 ppm for polarography and 4.4 ppm for atomic absorption. Since there were no significant differences (p > 0.05) found between the method averages, except at one of the unspiked levels, the 2 methods can be used to confirm each other at levels of 1-11 ppm. The polarographic method has been adopted as official first action for the determination of lead in fish.
