PD CEN/TS 16731:2014CEN/TS 16731:2014 (E) 4 1 Scope This Technical Specification describes a screening procedure for the determination of nitric-acid extractable inorganic arsenic in rice with hydride generation-AAS. The method has been developed and validated for th

17、e application of analysis in rice. It has been validated in an interlaboratory study according to ISO 5725 2 on parboiled rice and brown rice having an inorganic arsenic content of 0,092 mg/kg and 0,191 mg/kg. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively refer

19、General considerations and specific requirements 3 Principle Organic and inorganic arsenic compounds are extracted from the rice using diluted nitric acid. When determining the arsenic by hydride generation technique, only reducible forms of arsenic react. Of the organic arsenic compounds only a low

20、 proportion of dimethylarsinic acid reacts to form a hydride and methylarsonic acid is typically not present in rice. The gaseous hydride is transferred into a heated measuring cell (quartz cuvettes or coated graphite tube), by a stream of carrier gas, and decomposed. The absorption line of arsenic

21、at 193,7 nm serves as a measure of the arsenic concentration 3, 4. The procedure is exclusively applicable to rice 5. The determination of the inorganic fraction of arsenic requires a determination of arsenic with hydride generation AAS; direct measurement of the extract by graphite furnace AAS, usi

22、ng ICP-MS or ICP-OES provides incorrect results. 4 Reagents Unless stated otherwise, chemicals of analytical grade shall be used and “solution” means aqueous solution. The water shall be of the corresponding purity. The arsenic concentration of reagents and water shall be so low that it does not inf

Dissolve 1 g of sodium hydroxide pellets (4.5) in water, add 3 g of sodium borohydride (4.4) and dilute to 1 000 ml with water. Prepare

25、 the solution freshly every day of analysis. If the solution contains undissolved fractions, filter before use. The mass concentration of the sodium borohydride solution can vary depending on the system being used. Therefore, follow the manufacturers instructions. 4.7 Carrier solution, diluted hydro

26、chloric acid, e.g. w = 1,5 %. Dilute 50 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.1) to 1 000 ml with water. The mass concentration of the carrier solution can vary slightly depending on the system being used. Therefore, follow the manufacturers instructions. 4.8 L-ascorbic acid, w 99,7 %. 4.9 Potassium iodide, w

The mass concentrations of the potassium iodide and the ascorbic acid can slightly vary depending on th

28、e system being used. Therefore, follow the manufacturers instructions. 4.11 Arsenic stock solution, = 1 000 mg/l. The use of a commercial, certified stock solution is recommended. 4.12 Arsenic standard solutions: Prepare arsenic standard solutions by diluting the arsenic stock solution (4.11) in sev

29、eral steps. The arsenic standard solutions shall contain sufficient amounts of hydrochloric acid (at least 3 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.1) per 100 ml, w = 0,9 %). Example of a dilution series: 1 000 mg/l 10 mg/l 0,1 mg/l An arsenic standard solution with a mass concentration of = 10 mg/l of arsenic

31、lutions being used, in accordance with EN 13804. If the extraction vessels are used for several times, they should be cleaned by heating to 95 C for 1 h, using nitric acid (w = 13 %). PD CEN/TS 16731:2014CEN/TS 16731:2014 (E) 6 When using glassware (e.g. Erlenmeyer flasks, beakers, graduated flasks,

32、 pipettes), ensure that it does not release any arsenic to the solutions which come into contact with the glassware. 5.1 Atomic absorption spectrometer, comprising a measurement data acquisition system and the required accessories for the hydride generation technique. 5.2 Element-specific lamp for a

34、ropylene, with gas-tight screw closures and sufficient pressure stability. Centrifuge tubes with screw closures are suitable. 5.6 Temperature controlled heating apparatus, for an extraction temperature of 95 C, e.g. heating block or water bath; the heating block should be provided with an accurately

35、 fitting insert for the vessels used. The vessels should have contact with the wall in order to ensure good heat transfer. In order to achieve an extraction temperature of 95 C, the heating block shall be adjustable to a temperature of at least 120 C. 5.7 Temperature measuring device, for controllin

36、g the temperature in the extraction vessel. 6 Procedure 6.1 Sample preparation 6.1.1 General Prior to the extraction, the rice shall be finely ground, while avoiding the generation of excess heat. The particle size should be less than 500 m. The measurement should be performed as soon as possible af

37、ter extraction. If this is not possible, store extracts in a refrigerator but for not longer than 2 d. 6.1.2 Extraction Weigh 1 g 0,01 g of rice flour into a closable extraction vessel (5.5) and add 10 ml of diluted nitric acid (4.3). The ratio of 1:10 (test portion/extracting agent) shall be adhere

38、d to. Close the extraction vessels tightly and mix the content intensely using a test tube shaker. There shall be no remaining lumps. Afterwards, place the vessels in a pre-heated heating block and extract for 90 min at 95 C (4 C). Alternatively, a boiling water bath can be used for the extraction.

39、The extraction time starts as soon as the temperature in the vessel reaches 95 C. Shake the vessel occasionally (one to two times during extraction) without opening. A constant stirring with a magnetic stirrer can be helpful. Additionally, prepare a blank value with 10 ml of diluted nitric acid (4.3

40、) and treat in the same manner as the samples. The extraction temperature of 95 C (4 C) shall be reached in the extraction vessels; the measurement time starts when this temperature has been reached. It is recommended to fill a reference vessel with the same 4)g = 9,81 m/s2. PD CEN/TS 16731:2014CEN/

Experience has shown that there are differences in the temperature measured in the heating block and that measured in the solution. Alternatively, the extraction can als

42、o be performed in a microwave-heated apparatus, using gas-tight vessels. In this case, ensure that the temperature is measured inside a reference vessel and that the sensor is calibrated for a temperature of 95 C. Measuring the temperature with infrared sensors is not suitable for this type of extra

43、ction. Seal the vessels gas-tight in order to avoid evaporation losses and to keep the extraction volume constant. Therefore, it is no longer necessary to make the volume up to a final volume after cooling down. It shall be kept in mind that the vessels are pressurized and that only plastics vessels

44、 shall be used which are correspondent to temperature and pressure stability. In general, polyethylene or polypropylene vessels are suitable. After the extraction, cool down the vessel and open only afterwards, if applicable. Separate the solids from the solution as soon as possible. Firstly, centri

45、fuge the sample for 10 min, and filter through a syringe filter (5.4). The application of an ultracentrifuge (20 000 g to 25 000 g) is recommended as, in that case, filtration is no longer necessary, or considerably facilitated. It is recommended to filter just an aliquot, as filtration can be very

46、difficult due to proteins and carbohydrates in the sample. The extract shall be free of particles. The solution should be measured immediately by hydride generation AAS. If this is not possible, store the extraction solution in a suitable vessel in the refrigerator. Since new particles can be regene

47、rated after only one day, check the extract before starting the measurement, and filter if necessary. When stored in the refrigerator (5 C to 8 C), the extract is stable for 2 d. 6.1.3 Pre-reduction of reference, blank and sample solution Depending on the hydride system being used, it can become nec

48、essary to use larger or smaller volumes than described as follows. The ratios stated, however, shall be adhered to. For the purpose of preparing a 1 g As/l reference solution, pipette the following solutions into the hydride generation systems analysis vessel: 200 l of the standard solution with 0,1

49、 mg of As/l (4.12); 13,8 ml of diluted nitric acid (4.3); 2,0 ml of the potassium iodide/ascorbic acid solution (4.10); 4,0 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.1). Mix the solution after each addition. Finally, leave the vessel open or loosely covered with lintless paper, at room temperature. When preparing a 3 g As/l reference solution, take 600 l of the standard solution with 0,1 mg of As/l (4.12) and 13,4 ml of diluted nitric acid (4.3); the quantities of the other reagents are not changed.
