Abstract:
Objective:To establish a method for the determination of 11 trace elements in white vaselin. Methods:The contents of Mg,Al,Fe,Co,Ni,Cu,Zn,As,Cd,Hg and Pb in white vaselin were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrome-try (ICP-MS). The parameters of ICP-MS were as follows:the Argon gas pressure was 0.6 MPa,the helium pressure was 0.12 MPa, the scan times were 200,the flush time was 45 s,the sampling time was 45 s and the internal standard was added online. Results:The linear relationship between concentration and response value of each element standard solution was within the range of 0-100 ng· m L-1. Except the correlation coefficients of Mg and Fe were 0.998 and 0.997,that of the other elements was all above 0.999. The recoveries of Mg,Fe,Ni,Zn,As and Pb were 74.9%-83.0%,those of Cd and Hg were 87.5%-94.4%,and those of Al,Co and Cu were 107.6%-118.7%. The detection limit of Mg, Al, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, Hg and Pb was 1.9,0.59,0.61,0.16, 0.33,1.5,1.7,0.09,0.12,0.70 and 1.6 ng·ml-1,respectively. Among the 67 samples,the contents of Mg,Al,Fe,Ni,Cu, Zn, As and Hg were all detected out,while those of Co,Cd and Pb were only detected out in some samples. Conclusion:The method has the advantages of simple operation and high sensitivity,which can satisfy the determination of trace elements. It is suggested to se-lect 4 elements (Mg,Al,Fe and Ni) as the evaluation indices for white vaselin.
