In the present work, an efficient method was developed for the determination of lead in natural water samples. In this method, lead was extracted by octanoic acid reverse micelles (bulk phase) and measured by flame atomic absorption spectroscopy (FAAS). Ligand 1-(2-Pyridylazo)-2-naphthol was used as a chelating agent. In order to obtain the best extraction results, some experimental parameters (such as pH, ligand concentration, ionic strength, etc.) affecting the extraction efficiency were investigated and optimized. Under optimal conditions, the calibration curve was linear in the concentration range of 2.5-200.0 μgL-1 with a correlation coefficient of 0.9998. The detection limit was 0.8 μgL-1 and the preconcentration factor was 50. This method was successfully used to measure lead in natural water samples.

This work presents a fast, feasible, and sensitive method for the preconcentration and separation of cobalt in various real samples through the use of deep eutectic solvent-based dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DES-DLLME) in which deep eutectic solvent, methanol, and 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthole (PAN) were employed as extraction solvent, dispersive solvent, and complexing agent, respectively. Co concentration was measured by flame atomic absorption spectrometer. Effective parameters which may influence the extraction efficiencies (like type and volume of the dispersive and extraction solvent, pH, PAN concentration, and salt concentration) were examined and the optimal values were determined. The use of optimal conditions resulted in a limit of detection equal to 1.5 μg/L with a preconcentration factor of 40. RSD value, after measuring 20.0 μg/L of cobalt for 10 times, resulted in a value of 3.0 %. The methodʼ s accuracy and applicability were assessed through the evaluation of Co content in water certified reference materials and different agricultural and water specimen.

A new method for the separation and preconcentration of trace amounts of cadmium in food and water samples by magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) with Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4-MNPs) and its determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry has been developed. For this purpose, Fe3O4-MNPs were synthesized via chemical precipitation method. The extraction of cadmium ions from the aqueous solution was performed with dithizone (DTZ) as the chelating agent. The various parameters affecting the extraction and preconcentration of cadmium were investigated and optimized. In this method, the analyte ions were quantitatively adsorbed on Fe3O4-MNPs and then, Fe3O4-MNPs were easily separated from the aqueous solution by applying an external magnetic field. After extraction and collection of Fe3O4-MNPs, the analyte ions were eluted using 1.0 mol L-1 HNO3 in methanol. Under the optimal conditions, the calibration curve showed an excellent linearity in the concentration range of 0.3–24.0 µg L-1 and the limit of detection was 0.1 µg L-1 of cadmium. The developed method was successfully applied to the determination of cadmium in food and water samples. The results show that, magnetic nanoparticles can be used as a cheap and efficient adsorbent for the extraction and preconcentration of cadmium from real samples for Loratadine.
