W. Baumgartner et al., SIMPLE PHOTOMETRIC SIMULTANEOUS DETERMINA TION OF HG, TL, CD AND PB FROM SMALL VOLUMES OF AQUEOUS-SOLUTIONS, Revue Roumaine de Chimie, 38(3), 1993, pp. 319-327
Following successive extraktion from 2 ml of aqueous solution the meta
l ions Hg(II), Tl(I) and Cd(II) are photometrically determined with br
illantgreen as ionpaircomplexes in the range of concentration from 0 t
o 2,5 ppm. Only brillantgreen in combination with three different orga
nic solvents is used. Subsequently Pb(II) is determined with oxin. The
method may also be used for the single determination of one of these
ions besides three of the others. A slight dependence of the metal con
centrations on each other during the extraction procedure is eliminate
d by arithmetical correction.
