Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of detection methods, and particularly relates to a correction method for matrix effect of a graphite furnace atomic absorption method. BACKGROUND
[0002] The matrix effect refers to various interferences caused by one or more components coexisting with the analyte in the sample. The graphite furnace temperature program is divided into four stages: drying, ashing, atomization, and cleaning; the drying can remove moisture; the ashing can remove the matrix solvent (matrix); the atomization can convert the target element in the sample into atoms; and the cleaning can remove the residual target element to be measured in the graphite tube. The background absorption interference includes molecular absorption, which can be generated in the atomization process or before the atom. The non-characteristic gas molecules, oxides and salt molecules generated by the matrix solution in the atomization process cause interference to the characteristic radiation absorption. The molecular absorption can also be generated before the atomic absorption signal, which is mainly caused by the uneven distribution of sample vapor in the graphite furnace, resulting in uneven spatial distribution of background absorption. The background absorption interference also includes light scattering, which is caused by solid particles and aerosols generated in the atomization process, so that the scattered light deviates from the light path and is not detected by the detector. In summary, the matrix effect causes background absorption interference, molecular absorption interference and light scattering interference, which can occur in the drying and ashing stages before atomization, or in the atomization process. If it occurs in the drying and ashing stages before atomization, it can reduce the atomization signal; if it occurs in the atomization process, it can increase / decrease the atomization signal, and if the interference is serious, the graphite furnace atomic absorption detection cannot be completed.
[0003] The detection method of matrix interference is suitable for samples with a certain concentration, specifically: two samples of the same sample are taken, one of which is diluted 5 times (1+4), and the measured value of the diluted sample (not less than 10 times the detection limit) is multiplied by the dilution multiple and compared with the measured value of the undiluted sample, and the relative deviation within ±10% is considered to have no interference; otherwise, it indicates that there is interference, and dilution or standard addition method can be used to eliminate; when the concentration of the diluted sample is lower than 10 times the detection limit, the relative deviation of the slope of the standard addition method curve and the slope of the standard curve within ±3% is considered to have no interference; otherwise, it indicates that there is matrix interference.
[0004] Methods for correcting interference include spectral-based methods such as the deuterium lamp method. Deuterium lamps are continuous light sources; if there is strong absorption by coexisting elements within the instrument's spectral passband, it will be mistakenly treated as "background" and subtracted from the total absorbance. This phenomenon is more pronounced in graphite furnaces. The Zeeman effect method corrects background interference, but the equipment is complex and cannot be applied to all atomic absorption spectrometers. The hollow cathode lamp self-absorption method corrects background interference by utilizing the broadening of the emission lines of the hollow cathode lamp under high current, which generates self-absorption to measure background absorption. However, some elemental spectral lines readily self-absorb, having little impact on sensitivity, while others are difficult to self-absorb from the hollow cathode lamp, resulting in significant sensitivity loss after background correction. The disadvantages of spectral-based interference correction are: complex operation and high requirements for the atomic absorption spectrometer; in terms of instrument management, background correction capabilities need to be tested, and only qualified instruments can be used.
[0005] Another method for correcting interference is the standard addition method. Specifically, four equal amounts of the same test sample are measured and four identical solutions are prepared. The first solution is not added to the standard solution. The second, third, and fourth solutions are added to standard solutions of different concentrations in proportions, namely: C... x C x +C0、C x +2C0、C x +3C0, the mass concentration of the added standard solution is approximately equal to 0.5 times the mass concentration of the sample, i.e., C x ≈0.5C0. Under the same test conditions, the absorbance of four solutions was measured. A calibration curve was established with the mass concentration of the added standard solution as the x-axis and the corresponding absorbance as the y-axis. The intersection of the inverse extension of the curve with the concentration axis is the mass concentration of the test sample. This method is only applicable to regions where mass concentration and absorbance are linearly related. Precautions for the standard addition method: The volume error caused by adding the standard solution should not exceed 0.5%; the standard addition method can only offset the influence of matrix effects, not eliminate the influence of background absorption; it is only applicable to regions where sample concentration and absorbance are linearly related. Standard addition method suitability assessment: Measure the absorbance of the test sample as A, find the concentration as x from the standard curve, add a standard solution to the test sample with a spiking concentration of S, measure its absorbance as B, and find the concentration as y from the standard curve. Use the standard addition method suitability assessment formula to determine if the standard addition method is applicable. When C = x, i.e., S / (yx) = 1, the standard solution calibration curve method (abbreviated as: standard curve method) can be used. When matrix effects exist, S / (yx) is between 0.5 and 1.5, and the standard addition method can be used. If S / (yx) exceeds this range, the standard addition method is no longer applicable, and the matrix must be separated before measurement.
[0006] In the existing atomic absorption technology detection, for the sample with a large amount of matrix and unknown matrix content, the standard addition method is generally used to eliminate the matrix interference. The standard addition method has more strict application scope, the calibration curve should be strictly in the linear range, and the absorbance value is preferably in the range of 0.100-0.200; and the standard addition method has large workload, and is not suitable for large batch sample analysis and determination; the standard addition method is to add standard solutions with different concentrations into the sample, so that each calibration curve can only measure one sample; if the concentration of the sample to be tested is too high or too low, the standard addition method is not suitable, and the matrix should be separated in advance, but the separation of the matrix is complicated and difficult when the matrix composition is unknown.

[0198] In the present application, the sample to be tested is detected by using different range parallel samples for detection, testing and correcting the interference of the sample to be tested. In the present application, the method for testing and correcting whether there is matrix effect interference by using parallel samples is preferably:
[0199] According to the optimized temperature rising program, the concentration of the sample to be tested is C1 (if the sample to be tested is not diluted during optimization of the temperature rising program, it is the original sample to be tested, and if dilution is performed during optimization of the temperature rising program, it is the sample to be tested after dilution by the temperature rising program):
[0200] If the lower limit of determination ≤ C1 < the second highest point of the standard curve:
[0201] If 1 times the lower limit of determination ≤ C1 < 2 times the lower limit of determination, the parallel sample is added with a standard treatment to obtain a C2 solution, the addition standard multiple shall not be less than 1.25 times, and shall not exceed 3 times, and the addition standard multiple is J 加标 ; if C1 = (85-115%) (1 / J 加标 ) × C2, it is considered that there is no interference during atomization; at this time, C试样最终测定结果 = N 升温稀释 × C1 = N 升温稀释 × (1 / J 加标 ) × C2, where J 加标 ∈ [1.25, 3], N 升温稀释 = 1 if no dilution is used when optimizing the temperature program;
[0202] If 2xLCL < C1 < 3xLCL, the C2 solution is obtained by spiking or diluting the parallel sample, the spiking factor is J 加标 , and the dilution factor is N 检测稀释 , the spiked or diluted C2 solution simultaneously satisfies: 2xLCL < C2 < 4xLCL; if C1 = (90-110%) (N 检测稀释 or 1 / J 加标 ) × C2, it is considered that there is no interference during atomization; C 试样最终测定结果 = N 升温稀释 × C1 = N 升温稀释 × (N 检测稀释 or 1 / J 加标 ) × C2, N 升温稀释 = 1 if no dilution is used when optimizing the temperature program;
[0203] If 3xLCL < C1 < the second highest point concentration of the standard curve, the C2 solution is obtained by diluting the parallel sample, the dilution factor is N 检测稀释 , and 2xLCL < C2; if C1 = (95-105%) N 检测稀释 × C2, it is considered that there is no interference during atomization; C 试样最终测定结果 = N 升温稀释 × C1 = N 升温稀释 × N 检测稀释 × C2, N 升温稀释 = 1 if no dilution is used when optimizing the temperature program;
[0204] If the second highest point concentration of the standard curve < C1, the solutions CC1 and CC2 (CC1 concentration > CC2 concentration) are obtained by twice diluting the parallel sample, the dilution factors are N 检测稀释1 and N 检测稀释2 , respectively; simultaneously satisfy: 3xLCL < CC1 < the second highest point concentration of the standard curve, 3xLCL < CC2 < the second highest point concentration of the standard curve; if N 检测稀释1 CC1 = (95-105%) N 检测稀释2 × CC2, it is considered that there is no interference during atomization; C 试样最终测定结果 = N 升温稀释 × N 检测稀释1 × CC1 = N 升温稀释 × N 检测稀释2 × CC2, N升温稀释 = 1;
[0205] If the detection limit ≤ C1 < the lower limit of determination, the parallel sample is added with a standard or diluted to obtain a C2 solution, the addition multiple should not be less than 1.25 times and should not exceed 3 times, and the addition multiple is J 加标 ; the dilution multiple should not be less than 1.25 times and should not exceed 2 times, and the dilution multiple is N 检测稀释 ; the concentration of the C2 solution obtained by dilution should not be less than the detection limit; if C1 = (75-125%) (1 / J 加标 ) x C2, it is considered that there is no interference during atomization; at this time, C 试样最终测定结果 = N 升温稀释 x C1 = N 升温稀释 x (1 / J 加标 ) x C2, wherein J 加标 ∈ [1.25, 3], if there is no dilution when optimizing the temperature program, N 升温稀释 = 1;
[0206] If C1 < the detection limit and there is no dilution when optimizing the temperature program, i.e. N 升温稀释 = 1, at this time, the enrichment program does not have to be performed, and it is judged whether there is interference during atomization: if the C1 solution is determined for 7 times, t 单侧检验(7次 , 0.95) x S 7次C1溶液测定浓度值 ≤ MDL, the detection limit, it is considered that there is no interference; the determination result is not detected;
[0207] If C1 < the detection limit and dilution is performed when optimizing the temperature program, i.e. 1 < N 升温稀释 ≤ 10, at this time, the enrichment program must be performed until the concentration after enrichment is greater than the detection limit, the enrichment multiple is recorded as F 富集 , 1 < F 富集 ≤ 10, and C 试样最终测定结果 = N 升温稀释 x (1 / F 富集 ) x C1; if the enrichment multiple exceeds 10 times and is still not greater than the detection limit, the enrichment is stopped, and the sample detection result is not detected; it is judged whether there is interference during atomization: if the C1 solution before enrichment is determined for 7 times, t 单侧检验(7次,0.95) x S 7次未富集前C1溶液测定浓度值 ≤ MDL, the detection limit; at the same time, the enrichment is performed twice, i.e. CC1 and CC2, if CC1 = (70-130%) CC2; if the above two conditions are met, it is considered that there is no interference during atomization.
[0208] In the present application, if the optimized drying, ashing and temperature rising program time is too long, and the absorbance of the sample to be tested is relatively high (corresponding to high concentration), dilution is suitable or the absorbance of the sample to be tested is already higher than the highest concentration range of the standard curve, the sample to be tested must be diluted according to the detection requirements during the detection process, at this time, the temperature rising program of the diluted sample to be tested can be optimized, and the temperature rising program time can be appropriately reduced. If the concentration of the sample to be tested is high, dilution is carried out according to the normal detection requirements, for detection dilution, N 检测稀释 represents that detection dilution does not require enrichment program; but if the concentration of the sample to be tested does not exceed the highest concentration range of the standard curve, and the dilution is simply for reducing the optimized temperature rising program time, for temperature rising dilution, N 升温稀释 represents that N 升温稀释 ≤10 times, but the best is not diluted, if diluted, the dilution should not be more than 10 times, and special cases should not be more than 20 times; then after the standard curve is drawn, when the concentration of the sample to be tested is less than the detection limit, the enrichment program is considered; the sample to be tested is determined according to the optimized temperature rising program, and is recorded as C1 (if the sample to be tested is not diluted during the optimization of the temperature rising program, it is the original sample to be tested, and if the sample to be tested is diluted during the optimization of the temperature rising program, it is the sample to be tested after the temperature rising dilution).
[0209] In the present application, the graphite furnace enrichment program is the enrichment times f, the total sampling times f+1, the enrichment multiple F=f+1, and the operation program is to perform drying and ashing in the graphite furnace temperature rising program after each sampling, and then continue to sample, and after all the samples are sampled, atomization and cleaning are performed together, which is theoretically equivalent to f+1 times enrichment.
[0210] In the present application, atomic absorption detection method refers to the detection of most metals and a few non-metallic elements, which is divided into flame method and graphite furnace method. First, a linear equation of concentration and absorbance is established through a standard solution with known concentration, and then the metal concentration value of the unknown sample is indirectly obtained on the standard curve by measuring the absorbance of the unknown sample.
[0211] The application is applied to the field of graphite furnace atomic absorption environment sample detection, corrects the interference of a matrix on atomic absorption determination in an environment sample, and in order to realize the precise correction method of the matrix effect, needs to test in the linear range of the standard curve of the linear regression of the least square method, ensures that the standard curve of the linear regression of the least square method is a straight line, so as to correct the matrix effect interference in the atomization process. If the molecular absorption interference and light scattering interference caused by the matrix effect occur in drying and ashing before the atomization signal, the interference can be eliminated by optimizing the graphite furnace temperature program alone or by combining the method of optimizing the graphite furnace temperature program + dilution enrichment program; if the molecular absorption interference and light scattering interference caused by the matrix effect occur in the atomization process, the matrix interference checking method can be used to correct the matrix effect interference in the atomization process through the dilution enrichment program.
