Zusammenfassung

Verfahren werden beschrieben zur störungsfreien Bestimmung von As und Se in Meereswasser sowie marinen Geweben und Sedimenten, die auf der Erzeugung von AsH3 und SeH2 mit Hilfe von NaBH4 und anschließender Graphitofen-AAS (600° C) beruhen. Die Eichung erfolgt mit einfachen Eichkurven, die mit wässrigen Lösungen hergestellt werden (Empfindlichkeit: 24±4 bzw. 72±17 pg/0,0044 A für As bzw. Se). Die absoluten Nachweisgrenzen liegen bei 30 pg As und 70 pg Se. Die Präzision beträgt 2–3% für As und 5–10% für Se.

Summary

Methods are described for the interference free determination of As and Se in seawater as well as marine tissues and sediments based on the generation of AsH3, and SeH2 using NaBH4 with subsequent trapping in a graphite furnace at 600° C. Calibration is achieved with simple aqueous working curves having sensitivities of 24±4 and 72±17 pg/0.0044 A for As and Se, respectively. Absolute detection limits of 30 pg As and 70 pg Se are estimated. Precision of determination is 2–3% for As and 5–10% for Se.
