BS EN 16159:2012EN 16159:2012 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of selenium in animal feeding stuffs by hydride generation atomic absorption spectrometry (HG

21、AAS) after microwave pressure digestion. The method was successfully tested by an inter-laboratory study of CEN/TC 327/WG 4 in the range of 0,25 mg/kg to 74 mg/kg. The limit of quantification is 0,5 g/l of the test solution which corresponds to the calibration standard 2. Using a test portion of 0,5

22、 g and a volume of the test solution of 25 ml after pressure digestion the limit of quantification is calculated as 0,125 mg/kg in the feed material. NOTE A lower limit of quantification could be achieved each laboratory has to prove it. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in

23、 part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN ISO 3696, Water for analytical laboratory u

25、rescence hydride generation atomic absorption) after microwave pressure digestion and a pre-reduction step. The homogenised feeding stuff test sample is digested by nitric acid and hydrogen peroxide under pressure and high temperatures in a microwave-heated pressure digestion system. Selenium ions o

26、f the test solution are reduced with hydrochloric acid to selenium (IV) and converted to selenium hydride (SeH2) by sodium borohydride. This selenium hydride is transferred by a gas stream to a heated measurement cell and decomposed. The absorption at the selenium line at 196,0 nm corresponds to the

27、 amount of selenium. NOTE Selenium (VI) is not determined by the hydridisation as described here. It is therefore necessary to adjust the digestion conditions and to exercise a pre-reduction step with hydrochloric acid to yield only selenium (IV). Other digestion procedures with the same digestion e

28、fficiency or other measurement systems like Fl-HGAAS or hydride generation inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry are possible (see Annex C). WARNING The use of this standard can involve hazardous materials, operations and equipment. This standard does not purport to address all th

29、e safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. BS EN 16159:2012EN 16159:2012 (E) 5 4 Reagents The concentration of the trace

30、elements in the reagents and water used shall be low enough not to affect the results of the determination. A blank should be measured simultaneously with the test samples on each day of the analysis to control contamination and carry over with selenium in the reagents and apparatus used. Use only w

31、ater of quality 2 as described in EN ISO 3696. NOTE High purity is essential to avoid potential contamination. Therefore, only use reagents available with high purity or perform an extraction by a sub-boiling distillation for nitric acid (4.1). 4.1 Nitric acid, not less than 65 % (mass fraction), of

32、 approximately (HNO3) = 1,4 g/ml. 4.2 Diluted nitric acid, mix 100 ml nitric acid (4.1) with water to 1 l. 4.3 Hydrogen peroxide, not less than 30 % (mass fraction), of approximately (H2O2) 1,1 g/ml. 4.4 Hydrochloric acid, 30 %, mass concentration of approximately (HCl) = 1,15 g/ml. 4.5 Diluted hydr

33、ochloric acid, e.g. about 3 % (mass fraction), as carrier solution for the use in the flow-injection-procedure. EXAMPLE Dilute approximately 90 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.4) to 1 l with water. 4.6 Sodium borohydride solution, e.g. c = 2 g/l. Dissolve 2 g of sodium hydroxide pellets in water, add 2 g

34、 of sodium borohydride and dilute to 1 000 ml with water into 1 000 ml flask (5.3). Prepare a fresh solution daily and, when necessary, filter before use. When the analysis procedure takes longer, it is recommended to cool the sodium borohydride solution, i.e. with ice around the flask, during its u

35、se in the HGAAS measurement. NOTE 1 The concentration by mass of the sodium borohydride solution may vary with the system and the instructions of the relevant manufacturer shall therefore be observed. NOTE 2 Sodium borohydride, stable aq. solution, 4,4 mol/l in 14 mol/l NaOH is also commercially ava

36、ilable. WARNING It is essential to observe the safety instructions for working with sodium borohydride. Sodium borohydride forms hydrogen with acids and this can result in an explosive air/hydrogen mixture. A permanent extraction system shall be provided at the point where measurements are carried o

37、ut. 4.7 Selenium stock solution, c (Se) = 1 000 mg/l. The stock solution is commercially available. It is advisable to use certified stock solutions. Otherwise, dissolve 1,4053 g of selenium dioxide (SeO2) and 2 g sodium hydroxide in approximately 50 ml water, and dilute to 1 000 ml with water. 4.8

38、Selenium standard solution, c (Se) = 1 mg/l. Dilute e.g. 100 l of the stock solution (4.7) in a 100 ml flask (5.3) to give a concentration of 1 mg/l. The selenium standard solution shall contain an adequate amount of hydrochloric acid, e.g. 2 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.4) per 100 ml. NOTE The standa

39、rd solution is stable for at least three months. 4.9 Selenium calibration solutions. BS EN 16159:2012EN 16159:2012 (E) 6 For the preparation of five calibration solutions, the following procedure is recommended: Take aliquots of 0 l, 50 l, 250 l, 500 l and 1 000 l of the selenium standard solution (

40、4.8) into 100 ml flasks (5.3). After the addition of 20 ml of nitric acid (4.2) and 10 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.4) the calibration solutions are heated for 20 min in a water bath at 80 C (see pre-reduction step 6.3.2). After cooling down to room temperature, the flasks (5.3) are made up to the mar

41、k with water and the calibration solutions are measured. The selenium concentrations of the calibration solutions are: 0 g/l; 0,5 g/l; 2,5 g/l; 5 g/l and 10 g/l (see Table 1).

43、 Choose the concentrations of the calibration solutions so as not to exceed the linear range of the calibration function. It is recommended to use a minimum of five calibration solutions with different concentrations. The calibration solutions are measured from the lowest to the highest concentratio

44、n. In general, the calibration curve should be linear. Using a non-linear calibration function is possible if it is well described. NOTE Prepare fresh calibration solutions (inclusive pre-reduction step) on the day of the analysis. 5 Apparatus and equipment To minimise the contamination, all apparat

45、us which come into direct contact with the sample and the solutions should be carefully pre-treated according to EN 13804. 5.1 Microwave-heated pressure digestion apparatus with inert reaction vessels, i.e. made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), perfluoroalkoxy (PFA), fluorinated ethylene propylene

46、 (FEP) or quartz, suitable for digestion temperatures of more than 200 C. NOTE 1 The microwave oven should be generally resistant to corrosion and especially the electronics should be protected against corrosion to ensure safe operation. The ventilation should transfer the acid vapours to an extract

47、or hood or a fume cupboard. NOTE 2 The reaction vessels should have a safety valve designed for a pressure of 1 000 kPa.
