The use of lead and cadmium as internal standards for each other in anodic stripping analysis was investigated. Although accuracy was not affected, precision was significantly improved. The surface active agents Triton-X 100 and starch affected the sensitivity of the anodic stripping procedure for lead and cadmium, leading to error if a calibration curve is used. Data for application of the procedure to the analysis of the marine biological reference material LUTS-1 and soil reference materials SO-2, SO-3, and SO-4 are provided. Key words: internal standard, anodic stripping voltammetry, calibration curve, standard addition, lead determination, cadmium determination.

Abstract A method is described for the simultaneous determination of ultratrace levels of lead and cadmium in selected agricultural crop samples by differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry. Samples are dry ashed at high temperature with H2SO4 as an ashing aid. Techniques are described to control the lead and cadmium blank levels of 2 ng and 0.4 ng, respectively. Typical relative standard deviations for the crop analyses are 13% at 100 ng/g and 25% at 10 ng/g for lead, and 5% at 100 ng/g and 10% at 10 ng/g for cadmium. The lowest quantifiable level, based on 3 g dry sample, is 2 ng/g for lead and 1 ng/g for cadmium. Recovery studies, precision studies, and analyses of NBS Standard Reference Materials demonstrate the accuracy and reproducibility of this technique. A summary of results for over 1700 crop samples is reported.

In the present communication determination of Zn, Cd, Pb and Cu metals has been carried out from ground water of Hapur District, Uttar Pradesh (India) using differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV) at Hanging Mercury Dropping Electrode (HMDE). Determination of Zn, Cd, Pb and Cu was carried out by using acetate solution as buffer (pH 4.6) with a sweep rate of 0.06 V/sec and pulse amplitude 0.05 V by HMDE by standard addition method. The minimum level of Zn, Cd, Pb and Cu should also be near to zero and the concentration found in the ground water sample of Hapur (India) as analyzed 2.1834, 0.0509, 0.0116 and 0.0331mg/L-1 respectively.

Metals in wine can originate from natural and anthropogenic sources and their concentrations have significant effects on wine proprieties as well in its conservation. In this work, direct and simultaneous determinations of Zn, Cd, Pb and Cu in wine samples were carried out by differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry without any steps of previous pretreatment. The samples analyzed presented concentration levels from 4.64 to 69.3 µg L−1 of Zn, from 1.74 to 5.25 µg L−1 of Cd, from 4.57 to 17.9 µg L−1 of Pb and from 1.0 to 10.3 µg L−1 of Cu. Accuracy was evaluated with the standard addition method and recoveries ranged from 82.5 and 130.8% for Zn, from 85.7 to 107.0% for Cd, from 89.7 to 101.0% for Pb and from 81.4 to 105.9% for Cu. With the application of this method, it was possible to quantify the metals in a simple and easy way not requiring sample preparation or other approaches for the destruction of organic substances.
