After extraction from the plasma by a system of sampler and skimmer cones the positive (charged) tin ions are sep

21、arated according to their mass charge ratio in a mass spectrometer and quantified in a detector system. 4 Reagents 4.1 General The concentration of tin in the reagents and water used shall be low enough not to affect the results of the determination.

Cool to ambient temperature, and add by means of a pipette exactly 1,0 ml of tin standard solution 1 (4.5.1) and dilute to volume with water. This solution is stable fo

26、r one week. 4.5.3 Rhodium standard solution, mass concentration (Rh) = 10 mg/l Fill a 50 ml volumetric flask with 10 ml to 20 ml of water, add 2,5 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.3) and mix. Cool to ambient temperature, and add by means of a pipette exactly 0,5 ml of rhodium stock solution (4.4.2) and di

27、lute to volume with water. This solution is stable for at least four weeks. 4.6 Calibration solutions The following concentrations of the calibration solutions are examples and may be changed according to the sensitivity of measuring instrument and the concentration range to be investigated. Care sh

28、all be taken that calibration is carried out within the linear range of the detector system while paying attention to the varying frequency of isotopes. The quantity of internal standard added should be sufficient enough to obtain a stable and reproducible intensity. For calibration at least three c

29、alibration solutions of different concentration shall be used. The acid concentration should correspond to the one in the measuring solution. The preparation of the following solutions is given as an example: Calibration solutions with mass concentrations of 5 g/l, 10 g/l, 20 g/l and 40 g/l. The cal

30、ibration solutions are prepared from the tin standard solution 2 (4.5.2) according to following procedure: Fill four 50 ml volumetric flasks with 10 ml to 20 ml of water, add 0,5 ml of nitric acid (4.2) and 0,1 ml of hydro-chloric acid (4.3) and mix. Cool to ambient temperature, and pipette exactly

31、the same amount of internal standard, e.g. 0,5 ml of rhodium standard solution (4.5.3), into each of the measuring flasks. Then, for the calibration solutions of mass concentrations of 5 g/l, 10 g/l, 20 g/l and 40 g/l, pipette exactly 0,25 ml, 0,50 ml, 1,0 ml and 2,0 ml of the standard solution 2 (4

32、.5.2), respectively, into the four separate 50 ml volumetric flasks and make up to volume with water. These solutions shall be freshly prepared on each day of measurement. The calibration solutions described here shall be understood as examples. The concentrations prepared shall be in the linear ran

33、ge of the ICP-MS detector system. Furthermore, the acid concentration of the calibration solutions shall be matched to the amounts of acid being present in the diluted digestion solution. 4.7 Blank solution (blank solution) The blank solution contains water, nitric acid and hydrochloric acid in amou

34、nts that correspond to the concentrations in the measurement solution, for example 0,5 ml of nitric acid (4.2) and 0,1 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.3) in 50 ml as well as the same amount of internal standard (0,5 ml rhodium standard solution (4.5.3) as used for the calibration solutions in 50 ml. 5 Ap

35、paratus and equipment 5.1 General All apparatus and equipment that come into direct contact with the sample and solutions shall be pre-cleaned appropriately.

36、-MS instrument with inductively coupled argon plasma as ionisation unit, sample feeding and nebulising system as well as an instrument controlling unit and an evaluation unit. 6 Procedure 6.1 Digestion of the sample Mineralize the sample by pressurized digestion in accordance with EN 13805. For the

37、quantification of tin, add 0,5 ml to 1 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.3) to the digestion vessel, which contains nitric acid (4.2) used for digestion, at an amount that corresponds to the amount of nitric acid. Do not add the hydrochloric acid until the spontaneous reaction with nitric acid has subsided

38、. After addition of the hydrochloric acid close the digestion vessel immediately in order to avoid loss of active chlorine. Start pressurized digestion shortly thereafter. The digestion requirements are based on the specifications of the instrument manufacturer, the reactivity of the sample, the max

39、imum pressure stability of the digestion vessel and the attainable temperature. EXAMPLE 1 Precisely weigh 0,4 g to 0,5 g of dry sample (residual moisture of less than 20 %) into a 100 ml digestion vessel and add 5 ml of nitric acid (4.2). Carefully shake the digestion vessel to prevent clots from fo

40、rming in the sample. After the spontaneous reaction has subsided, add 1 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.3) and close the digestion vessel as quickly as possible. For samples with a higher degree of moisture content, the weighed quantities can be increased. The digestion solution that results from the pre

41、ssurized digestion according to EN 13805 is made up to a defined volume, e.g. 20 ml, by water. This solution is diluted, using water, by a factor of 10 or higher for the subsequent determination of tin. It is important that the amount of internal standard is exactly the same, both in the measurement

42、 solutions and in the calibrations solutions. EXAMPLE 2 For preparation of the measurement solution directly in the vessel used for measurement, pipette exactly 1,0 ml digestion solution and 0,5 ml rhodium standard solution (4.5.3) into the measurement vessel and make up with water to 10 ml. This so

43、lution should be measured on the day of preparation. 6.2 Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry 6.2.1 ICP-MS operating conditions Set the instrument according to the manufacturers specifications and ignite the plasma. Following sufficient warming up and stabilization of the instrument, optimis

44、e the settings. 6.2.2 Determination by ICP-MS Once the instrument is optimised start the measurements. For evaluation tin isotopes of the masses 117 and 118 shall be used. The internal standard rhodium is analysed for the mass 103. Correction with internal standard is implemented by the method setti

45、ngs of the instrument software. Measure the blank solution (4.7) and calibration solutions (4.6) and use the counting rate (counts/s) and concentrations to generate a calibration curve. Determine the linear range of the calibration function. The measurement solution is aspirated and measured. Use th

46、e calibration curve to convert the determined counting rate into concentration units. 6.3 Quality control For quality control, analyse a reference material with reliably known content of tin in parallel to each series of measurements. Include all procedural steps starting at the digestion. This also

47、 applies to each series of digestions including all procedural steps to prepare and measure blank solutions.

When using ICP-MS, the limit of quantification in the digestion solution prepared according to EN 13805 is mainly affected by the matrix content. Regarding the foodstuff, the limit of quantificatio
