Abstract

Simultaneous determination of mercury and arsenic has been studied by reductive vapor generation-ICP-AES. Samples were digested with a microwave digestion system and extracted with acids. Reductive vapor generation was carried out with 6N HCI and 2% <TEX>$NaBH_4$</TEX>. Detection limit of Hg and As are found to be 0.06 ppb and 0.08 ppb, respectively. Measured values of Hg and As in inorganic samples agree well with reference value of SRMs, but the recovery of As from organic samples is obtained approximately 80% of the reference values.
