EN 15510:2007 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) method for the determination of: minerals calcium, sodium, phosphorus, magnesium

17、and potassium and the elements iron, zinc, copper, manganese, cobalt, molybdenum in animal feeding stuffs, elements arsenic, lead and cadmium in minerals on their own, in pre-mixtures or mixtures for use in animal nutrition. The method detection limit for each element is dependent on the sample matr

18、ix as well as of the instrument. The method is not applicable for determination of low concentrations of elements. The limit of quantification should be 3 mg/kg or lower. NOTE This method can also be used for the determination of minerals in products with high mineral content ( 5%), yet for this pur

19、pose, other more precise analytical techniques are available. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document

20、(including any amendments) applies. EN ISO 3696, Water for analytical laboratory use Specification and test methods (ISO 3696:1987) ISO 6498, Animal feeding stuffs Preparation of test samples 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 li

21、mit of detection (LOD) smallest measured content from which it is possible to deduce the presence of the analyte with reasonable statistical certainty NOTE The limit of detection is numerically equal to three times the standard deviation of the mean of blank determinations (n 10, were n = number of

22、measures) performed under reproducibility conditions. 3.2 limit of quantification (LOQ) lowest content of the analyte that can be measured with reasonable statistical certainty NOTE If both trueness and precision are constant over a concentration range around the limit of detection, then the limit o

23、f quantification is numerically equal to ten times the standard deviation of the mean of blank determinations (n 10, were n = number of measures) performed under reproducibility conditions. 3.3 feed additives substances are feed additives when they comply with the definition of feed additives given

24、in regulation EU 1831/2003 3.4 animal feeding stuffs substances that comply with the definition of animal feeding stuffs given in regulation EU 178/2002 EN 15510:2007 (E) 5 4 Principle For the determination of the minerals calcium, sodium, phosphorus, magnesium and potassium and the elements iron, z

25、inc, copper, manganese, cobalt, molybdenum, a test portion of the sample is ashed and dissolved in hydrochloric acid (in the case of organic feeding stuffs) or wet digested with hydrochloric acid (in the case of mineral compounds). For the determination of the elements arsenic, cadmium and lead, a t

26、est portion of the sample is wet digested with nitric acid. The concentration of the elements calcium, sodium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, iron, zinc, copper, manganese, cobalt, molybdenum, arsenic, cadmium and lead is determined by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-

27、AES) using external calibration or standard addition technique. WARNING Use of this European Standard can involve hazardous materials, operations and equipment.

In general, when combining multi-element standard solutions, their chemical compatibility and the possible hydrolysis of the components shall be regarded. Spectral in

35、terferences from other elements in multi-element standard solutions also need to be considered (Annex B.2.2). The examples given below also consider the measuring range of various inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometers and the expected concentration of the element in animal feeding

36、 stuffs. The multi-element standard solutions are considered to be stable for several months, if stored in the dark. Other combinations of elements at different concentrations can be used, provided that the element stock solutions (5.9) are diluted with the same acid and equal concentration as the a

46、he method specified in this Standard. A recommended sampling method is given in EN ISO 6497. It is important that the laboratory receives a sample that is truly representative and has not been damaged or changed during transport or storage. EN 15510:2007 (E) 8 8 Preparation of the test sample 8.1 Ge

47、neral Prepare the test sample in accordance with ISO 6498. Grinding must be carried out in conditions such that the substance is not appreciably heated. Operation is to be repeated as many times as is necessary and it must be affected as quickly as possible in order to prevent any gain or loss of co

48、nstituents (water). Whole ground product is placed in a flask made of e.g. polypropylene, which can be stoppered and stored in such way to prevent any change in composition. Before any weighing is carried out for the analysis, the whole test sample must be thoroughly mixed for reasons of homogeneity
