Nonanoic Acid-Coated Magnetite Nanoparticles for Separation and Preconcentration of Lead and Copper in Tobacco Samples prior to Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry Determination

A new method using nonanoic acid-coated magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles as adsorbent has been developed for the single-step extraction and preconcentration of lead and copper in tobacco samples. Transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction spectrometry were used to characterize the adsorbent. The experimental parameters affecting extraction efficiency, including amount of nanoparticles, volume of chelating reagents, sample pH, ultrasonic time and desorption conditions were investigated. The analytes desorbed from nanoparticles were determined by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. Und...
