Abstract

A solid phase extraction and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) for the determination of lead(II) ions with octadecyl-bonded silica membrane disks modified by 4-methyl-N-{2-(4-methylbenzothioyl)aminoethyl}benzenecarbothioamide (MMAB) was studied. Extraction efficiency, and the effects of parameters such as flow rate, pH, type and the least amount of acid for stripping of lead(II) from the modified disks and break through volume were examined. The maximum capacity of the membrane disks modified by 4.0 mg of MMAB used was found to be 527 ± 4 µg of lead(II) ions. The preconcentration factor is 440 (for 2200 mL water sample and flow rate of 12 mL min-1) and detection limit of the proposed method is 85.4 ng mL-1. The developed method was successfully applied to the determination of lead(II) ions in blood, spinach, bean, hair, milk, pepper and various water samples.
