Resumo
A method for Cr determination in medicinal plants using direct solid sampling graphite furnace high-resolution continuum source atomic absorption spectrometry was developed. Modifiers were dispensable. Pyrolysis and atomization temperatures were 1500 degrees C and 2400 degrees C, respectively. Slopes of calibration curves (50-750 pg Cr, R-2>0.999) using aqueous and solid standards coincides in 96%, indicated feasibility of aqueous calibration for solid sampling of medicinal plants. Accuracy was checked by analysis of four plant certified reference materials. Results were in agreement at 95% confidence level with certified and non-certified values. Ten samples of medicinal plants were analyzed and Cr contents were in the 1.3-17.7 mu g g(-1) Cr range. The highest RSD (n=5) was 15.4% for the sample Melissa officinalis containing 13.9 +/- 2.1 mu g g(-1) Cr. The limit of detection was 3.3 ng g(-1) Cr. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
