Abstract A method validation of the total analysis of cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), arsenic (As), and mercury (Hg) in foodstuffs by inductively coupled plasma/mass spectrometry (ICP/MS) after closed vessel microwave digestion is presented. Due to the lack of reference method for ICP/MS techniques in food and, based on the project of the European Committee of Normalization (CEN/TC 275/WG 10), the Agence Française de Normalisation (AFNOR) guidelines NF V03–110 were used for the evaluation of this method based on 2 steps, sample preparation and multielement detection. Several criteria considered as compulsory (linearity, specificity, precision under repeatability conditions, and trueness) have been estimated and discussed, in addition to intermediate precision reproducibility, the limit of detection, and the limit of quantification. Furthermore, a comparison with in-house methods using electrothermal atomic absorption was performed using an external proficiency testing scheme and food samples. The results indicated that this method could be used in the laboratory for the routine determination of these 4 cumulative toxic metals in foodstuffs with acceptable analytical performance.

Abstract A rapid procedure, based on closed vessels microwave digestion and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), was evaluated to ascertain the effect of chronic exposure to cadmium on intracellular accumulation of minor and essential trace elements in cultured epithelial cells (Caco-2 TC7). For all measurements, the method of external calibration was used and 3 elements (Be, Sc, In) were selected as internal standards. Optimization procedures are discussed and results are presented for the total determination of 9 key analytes (Na, Mg, Ca, Cr, Mn, Cu, Zn, Mo, and Cd) in certified reference materials (CRMs) and 20 samples of Caco-2 TC7 cells long-term exposed to Cd. The performance characteristics of the analytical system were evaluated by calibration and linearity, limits of detection and quantitation, accuracy with spiking, trueness and repeatability with available CRMs. As a complement to the ICP-MS determinations, both available CRMs and cell samples were analyzed either by electro thermal-or flame atomic absorption spectrometry. The results were in good agreement with the ICP-MS results.

Based on microwave digestion and dry digestion, the concentrations of Si, S, Ca, Cr, Fe, Ni, Cu, Al, Mo, Sb, Ti, V, Y and Zn in carbon fiber were determined using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Compare with the concentrations in the solution got by microwave digestion, the concentrations in the solution got by dry digestion are higher. And microwave digestion is more suitable for treatment of carbon fiber containing volatile elements than dry digestion.

Abstract A study was conducted to evaluate the applicability of inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) techniques for determination of metals in composite diets. Aluminum, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, manganese, nickel, vanadium, and zinc were determined by this method. Atmospheric pressure microwave digestion was used to solubilize analytes in homogenized composite diet samples, and this procedure was followed by ICP-MS analysis. Recovery of certified elements from standard reference materials ranged from 92 to 119% with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 0.4–1.9%. Recovery of elements from fortified composite diet samples ranged from 75 to 129% with RSDs of 0–11.3%. Limits of detection ranged from 1 to 1700 ng/g; high values were due to significant amounts of certain elements naturally present in composite diets. Results of this study demonstrate that low-resolution quadrupole-based ICP-MS provides precise and accurate measurements of the elements tested in composite diet samples.

As one of the most widely used techniques for concentration determination of trace elements in coal, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) has also been used in several studies for the determination of mercury concentration in coal. ICP-MS after closed-vessel microwave digestion and a Milestone DMA-80 are employed in this study to determine the mercury concentration in coal. Three NIST  standard references of coal samples were selected as references to verify the accuracy of the test results. The Au rinse solution (200 μg/L, 5% HNO3) can diminish mercury memory effects to a blank level within 80 seconds. The results showed that ICP-MS can accurately determine the mercury content in mercury standard solutions, but the mercury concentration in most NIST samples after microwave digestion is lower than the detection level of the ICP-MS. The inaccuracy may be due to volatilization of mercury during solid sample digestion process. By contrast, the determined concentrations in NIST samples by the Milestone DMA-80 are very close to the verified values. Therefore, ICP-MS is not recommended to analyze mercury in coal after digestion even in a closed-vessel digestion system, but the mercury direct analyzer (without digestion) is recommended to analyze mercury in coal.
