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.

Nickel in catalytic-cracking feedstocks is determined by atomic-absorption spectrophotometry with no sample preparation other than dilution in p–xylene. A modification of the method of additions permits rapid testing with a detection limit of 0.05 ppm Ni and a precision of 0.05 ppm.
