Um novo método para quantificar mercúrio orgânico (Hg orgânico) empregando a espectrometria de fluorescência atômica do vapor frio

Abstract: Recebido em 13/4/05; aceito em 10/2/06; publicado na web em 14/6/06 A NOVEL APPROACH TO QUANTIFY ORGANIC MERCURY (ORGANIC Hg) BY COLD VAPOUR ATOMIC FLUO-RESCENCE SPECTROSCOPY (CVAFS). In this work a simple and sensitive procedure to extract organic mercury from water and sediment samples, using methylene chloride in acidic media followed by CVAFS quantification has been developed. The method was evaluated for possible interferents, using different inorganic mercury species and humic acid, no effects being obse… Show more

“…The analytical method used for organic Hg quantification was adapted with some modifications from Bisinoti et al 13 and based on the extraction of organic Hg forms with dichloromethane and hydrochloric acid. Modifications consisted in altering the quantity and concentration of HCl used in the extraction step.…”

“…Several authors [11][12][13][14][15][21][22][23][24] cite the accidental MeHg formation as one of the main problems in determining this analite and consequently in the organic Hg determination. According to these authors, the % of Hg +2 methylated is low (up to 0.5%, but normally between 0.01 to 0.05% in relation to Hg +2 ).…”

“…51,54,[59][60][61][62][63] This fraction was always higher during the ebb tide (1.7 ± 0.8 ng L -1 , n = 40 and 3.5 ± 0.9 ng L -1 , n = 21 in dry and wet season respectively) than during the flood tide (0.7 ± 0.5 ng L -1 , n = 24 and 2.4 ± 0.8 ng L -1 , n = 23 in dry and wet season respectively) (Figure 3c). The average non-reactive Hg fraction during the dry season (1.3 ± 0.9 ng L -1 , n = 64) was lower than during the wet season (3.0 ± 1.0 ng L -1 , n = 44).…”

“…54,[59][60][61] Since the sample oxidation with bromine monochloride solution (BrCl) is sufficient to cleave C-Hg covalent bonds of the very stable organic-Hg complexes and liberate Hg +2 for reduction as part of the sparging step. 51,54,[59][60][61][62][63] Particulate Hg fraction was determined after the filtration of the non-acidified sub-samples through a glass micro fiber filter (0.70 µm, Whatman GF/F) pretreated by heating at 450 °C for 12 h, directly after sampling. The filters were analyzed by oxidation with a 50% (v/v) aqua-regia solution (4H 2 O:3HCl:1HNO 3 ), at 70 to 80 °C for 1 h followed by a reduction with the same SnCl 2 solution used for reducing the reactive Hg fraction.…”
