The limits of detection and quantification calculated for 20 readings of the blank of the standard slurries (5 mg mL(-1) of microcrystalline cellulose) were 0.33 and 1.10 mu g L(-1). The proposed method was applied to determine selenium in samples of organically grown vegetables and its results proved compatible with those obtained from samples mineralized by acid digestion in a microwave oven.409-414engVegetable samplesSlurry samplingOrganic and convectional cultureSelenium determinationGFAASArtigo10.1007/s00217-009-1068-2WOS:000267242000007Acesso restrito69814486374563910000-0003-4179-0574
