Abstract:
Objective To establish a method for the determination of 14 kinds of lanthanide (La) series elements in human feces at the same time by ICP-MS.Methods In January 2009,human feces were collected for three consecutive days from 30 subjects in Tianjin area,the fecal samples for the three-day period were weighed and homogenized;then dried;grinded and ashed,the samples were digested by HNO3 before determination.The solution was directly analyzed by ICP-MS to determine the concentrations of the 14 kinds of La series elements in human faces with rhenium (Re) internal standard calibration.Results The linear ranges were 0-10 ?g/L with a correlation coefficient for each element of more than 0.999.The detection limits of 139La,140Ce,141Pr,143Nd,147Sm,151Eu,158Gd,159Tb,163Dy,165Ho,166Er,169Tm,174Yb and 175Lu in human feces were 0.48,0.49,0.47,1.6,1.9,0.46,0.79,0.18,0.65,0.39,0.38,0.17,0.09 and 0.09 ng/L respectively.The recoveries of this method were 93.42%-108.21%,and RSDs were 2.91%-9.20%.The analytical values of the certified reference material of human hair GBW 09101a by this method showed closed agreement with the reference values.Conclusion This method has relatively higher sensitivity and less interference,and is applicable to the rapid determination of 14 kinds of La series elements in human faces at the same time.
