Determination of As(III) and total as in water by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry after electrochemical preconcentration on a gold-plated porous glassy carbon electrode
2007
Arsenic(III) was preconcentrated in a flow-through electrochemical cell on a gold coated porous carbon electrode. On stripping, arsenic was eluted with diluted nitric acid and determined off-line by GF AAS. The deposition and stripping steps were optimized. The limit of detection and limit of quantification were found to be 1.9 µg L−1 and 6.4 µg L−1, respectively. The repeatability and reproducibility were found to be 5.3 % and 9.3 %, respectively. Total arsenic was determined after a microwave assisted chemical reduction of As(V) to As(III) making the procedure suitable for speciation analysis. The method was applied in analysis of water samples.
