C. Demesmay et al., ARSENIC SPECIATION BY COUPLING HIGH-PERFORMANCE LIQUID-CHROMATOGRAPHYWITH INDUCTIVELY-COUPLED PLASMA-MASS SPECTROMETRY, Fresenius' journal of analytical chemistry, 348(3), 1994, pp. 205-210
An ICP-MS detector in combination with HPLC has been evaluated for the
analysis of six arsenic compounds. The influence of the presence of a
n organic modifier in the mobile phase on arsenic response and the qua
lity parameters of the analysis are discussed. Detection limits for ar
senic species under study range from 10 to 30 pg. The determination of
arsenic compounds in solutions simulating fish or sediment extracts h
as been used to demonstrate the applicability of this technique.
