Abstract
In order to separate the potential arsenite metabolites methylarsonous acid and dimethylarsinous acid from arsenite, arsenate, methylarsonic acid and dimethylarsinic acid, the pH-dependent retention behaviour of all six arsen ic compounds was studied on a Hamilton PRP-X100 anion-exchange column with 30 mM phosphate buffers (pH 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9) containing 20% (v/v) methanol as mobile phase and employing an inductively coupled plasma atomic emissio n spectrometer (ICP-AES) as the arsenic-specific detector. Baseline separat ion of dimethylarsinic acid, methylarsonous acid, methylarsonic acid, arsen ate and dimethylarsinous acid was achieved with a 30 mmol dm(-3) phosphate buffer (pH 5)-methanol mixture (80:20, v/v) in 25 min. Arsenite is not base line-separated from dimethylarsinic acid under these conditions, Copyright (C) 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
