Tims. Lopes et al., SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC FLOW-INJECTION DETERMINATION OF LEAD IN PORT-WINE USING IN-LINE ION-EXCHANGE CONCENTRATION, Analyst, 121(8), 1996, pp. 1047-1050
A flow injection system with in-line ion exchange is proposed for the
spectrophotometric determination of lead in Port wine, A Chelex-100 re
sin mini-column (200-400 mesh) is used for lead concentration, and the
chromogenic reaction is based on the formation of a ternary complex b
etween lead, Malachite Green and iodide, Forty-five digested wine samp
les can be run per hour (25-500 mu g l(-1) Pb) and results are compara
ble to those obtained by ETAAS. Other features are the measurement pre
cision (RSDs lower than 2.6%), a detection limit of 12 mu g l(-1) and
a sampling rate of 45 h(-1).
