Description: Krachler, Michael; Emons, Hendrik Fresenius' Journal of Analytical Chemistry 368 (2000), 7, 702 - 707 Six extraction media (acetic acid, EDTA, tetrabutylammonium hydroxide, NaOH, MeOH/H 2 O, acetonitrile/H 2 O) were tested for their ability to extract antimony (Sb) and arsenic (As) from freeze-dried popular leaves, pine shoots and spruce shoots, as well as from a peat matrix. Additionally, the extraction efficiency of Sb and As in fresh and freeze-dried elder leaves and poplar leaves was compared. Total concentrations of Sb and As of aliquots (~220 mg) of the freeze-dried samples were analysed by flow injection hydride generation atomic absorption spectrometry (FI-HG-AAS) after open vessel digestion with adequate mixtures of nitric, sulfuric, hydrochloric, and perchloric acid. Three reference materials GBW 07602 Bush Branches and Leaves, GBW 07604 Poplar Leaves, and SRM 1575 Pine Needles were analysed with every batch of samples to ensure the accuracy and precision of the applied analytical procedures. The use of hydrofluoric acid in the digestion mixture leads to distinctly lower As values (down to 40%) than actual concentrations in the investigated plant materials. Extraction efficiencies were generally low and lower for Sb than for As. Solutions of 0.66 mol L -1 NaOH liberated highest amounts of Sb with ~10% for popular leaves, and ~19% each for pine shoots and spruce shoots. Distinctly higher concentrations of As in NaOH extracts of popular leaves (22%), pine shoots (32%), and spruce shoots (36%) were quantified. Extraction experiments resulted in yields of 7-9% from fresh elder and popular leaves, respectively, and 8-13% for freeze-dried samples for Sb. The corresponding values for As were 10-35% for the fresh material and 7-37% for the freeze-dried samples. doi:10.1007/s002160000578
