23、atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) after aqua regia dissolution.“ Limits of quantification are dependent on the sample matrix as well as on the instrument, but can roughly be expected to be 0,3 mg/kg for Cd and 1 mg/kg for Cr, Ni and Pb. !NOTE 1“ Due to significant interference from Cu, Fe and M
24、n, no valid results can be reported using this method for fertilizer matrices containing high concentrations ( 10 %) of these micro-nutrients. !NOTE 2 The term fertilizer is used throughout the body of this European Standard and needs to be taken to include liming materials unless otherwise indicate

The concentrations in the extract are measured by inductively coupled plasmaatomic em
29、ission spectrometry (ICP-AES), with axial or radial viewing. 5 Sampling and sample preparation Sampling is not part of the method specified in this European Standard. A recommended sampling method is given in EN 1482-1. Sample preparation shall be carried out in accordance with EN 1482-2. 6 Reagents
30、 Use only reagents of recognized analytical grade. BS EN 16319:2013+A1:2015EN 16319:2013+A1:2015 (E) 5 Commercially available stock solutions shall be replaced according to the specifications from the supplier or after one year if prepared in the laboratory from available salts. Standard solutions s
31、hall be renewed monthly as a general rule. 6.1 Water, conforming to grade 2 according to EN ISO 3696. 6.2 Hydrochloric acid, c(HCl) = 12 mol/l; 37 % volume fraction; 1,18 g/ml. 6.3 Nitric acid, c(HNO3) = 16 mol/l; not less than 65 % volume fraction; 1,42 g/ml. 6.4 Mixed solution of 0,8 mol/l nitric
32、acid and 1,8 mol/l hydrochloric acid. Mix 150 ml of hydrochloric acid (6.2) and 50 ml nitric acid (6.3) to 1,0 l of water (6.1). 6.5 Standard stock solutions, cadmium, chromium, nickel and lead standard stock solutions, e.g. = 1 000 mg/l for each element. Use suitable stock solutions. Both single-el
33、ement stock solutions and multi-element stock solutions with adequate specification stating the acid used and the preparation technique are commercially available. It is recommended to use commercially available standard stock solutions for cadmium, chromium, nickel and lead. 6.6 Working standard so
34、lutions. Depending on the scope, different working standard solutions may be necessary. In general, when combining elements in working standard solutions, their chemical compatibility shall be regarded. Spectral interferences from other elements present in working standard solutions also need to be
35、considered. Various combinations of elements at different concentrations may be used, provided that the standard stock solutions (6.5) are diluted with the same acid and in equal concentration as the acid in the test solution. NOTE In equal concentrations (in mg/l), cadmium, chromium, nickel and lea
36、d are compatible in a multi-element standard solution for the determination by ICP-AES for this application. 6.6.1 Working standard solution I, = 100 mg/l for cadmium, chromium, nickel and lead. Dilute 10,0 ml of each standard stock solution of cadmium, chromium, nickel and lead (6.5) to 100,0 ml wi
37、th the mixed acid solution (6.4) in the same 100 ml flask. If non-equal concentrations of cadmium, chromium, nickel and lead are needed, dilute the required volumes into 100,0 ml. This solution is used to prepare spiked test solutions and standard and calibration solutions. 6.6.2 Working standard so
38、lution II, = 10 mg/l for cadmium, chromium, nickel and lead. Dilute 10,0 ml of the working standard solution I of cadmium, chromium, nickel and lead (6.6.1) to 100,0 ml with the mixed acid solution (6.4) in a 100 ml flask. If non-equal concentrations of cadmium, chromium, nickel and lead are needed,
39、 dilute the require volume from the standard stock solutions (6.5) into 100,0 ml. This solution is used to prepare spiked test solutions and calibration solutions. 7 Apparatus 7.1 Common laboratory glassware. 7.2 Analytical balance, capable of weighing to an accuracy of 1 mg. 7.3 Inductively coupled
40、 plasma-atomic emission spectrometer, with axial or radial viewing of the plasma and with suitable background correction. BS EN 16319:2013+A1:2015EN 16319:2013+A1:2015 (E) 6 The settings of the working conditions (e.g. gas flows, RF or plasma power, sample uptake rate, integration time and number of
41、 replicates) shall be optimized according to the manufacturers instructions. Radial viewing of the plasma may be used if it can be shown that the limits of quantification for cadmium, chromium, nickel and lead are below the required legal limit values. The use of axial orientation of the viewing opt
42、ics requires good control of the matrix effects coming from “easily ionisable elements“ (i.e. the influence of easily ionisable elements in varying concentrations on the signal intensities of the analytes). For alkali-elements, this can be achieved by adding caesium-chloride solution (CsCl). In gene
43、ral, matrix matching of calibration solutions or calibration by standard additions with several calibration standards will correct accurately for these matrix effects. Spike recovery of one known standard combined with external calibration can, if used properly, also correct sufficiently for matrix
44、effects (see 8.1). Correction by internal standardization is also a good option, but the accuracy of the measurements after internal standard correction should be validated properly prior to use on unknown fertilizer samples. 7.4 Dilutor. Instrument used for automated volumetric dilutions or other a
45、ppropriate equipment (e.g. pipettes and volumetric glassware) to perform dilutions. The precision and accuracy of this type of equipment for volumetric dilutions shall be established, and controlled and documented regularly. 7.5 Ash-free filter paper, i.e. Whatman 589/21)or equivalent quality. 8 Pro
46、cedure 8.1 General Calibrations by standard additions with several standards or by matrix matching are very powerful calibration techniques and can be used to accurately correct for matrix effects from easy-ionisable elements (multiplicative matrix effects). Additive matrix effects (i.e. spectral in
47、terferences) are not corrected for with standard additions calibration. For matrix matching, additive matrix effects will be corrected for when the added matrix is the cause of the matrix effect. The main drawback of calibration by standard addition with several standards is the requirement for a ca
48、libration function for each sample type, which is a time consuming process. For matrix matching a profound knowledge of the sample matrix is needed, which is not always necessarily available. These two techniques may thus not be practical to use in routine fertilizer laboratories. Correction by inte
49、rnal standardization is also a good option, but the accuracy of the measurements after internal standard correction should be validated properly prior to use on unknown fertilizer samples. It is therefore suggested that calibrations are to be performed by means of external calibration and correction of matrix effects by addition of one known spike of a standard solution (spike recovery). The method of external calibration and correction for spike recovery allows for the analysis of fertilizers with unknown matrix composition or wi
