    Author: Tuzen M, Melek E, Soylak M.
    Journal: J Hazard Mater; 2006 Aug 25; 136(3):597-603. PubMed ID: 16442723.
    Abstract:
    The sorption conditions including pH of the aqueous solution, sample volume, etc., on Celtek clay of copper(II), cadmium(II), lead(II), chromium(III), nickel(II) and cobalt(II) ions from environmental samples has been studied. The effects of electrolytes as matrix on the preconcentration were also investigated with the recoveries >95%. The 3 sigma detection limits for copper, cadmium, lead, chromium, nickel and cobalt ions were found to be 0.25, 0.32, 0.73, 0.45, 0.50 and 0.41 microg/l, respectively. The relative standard deviation was <10% for the determination of analytes. The procedure was validated by analysis of a NRCC-SLRS 4 Riverine Water, SRM 1573a Tomato leaves and IAEA 336 Lichen standard reference materials. The developed method was successively utilized for the determination of Cu(II), Cd(II), Pb(II), Cr(III), Ni(II) and Co(II) in various samples including natural waters, wheat and human hair by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) with satisfactorily results (recoveries>95% and R.S.D.'s<10%).
