National food safety standard - Determination of lead in
foods
1 Scope
This Standard specifies the methods for the determination of lead in foods by graphite
furnace atomic absorption spectrometry, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry
and flame atomic absorption spectrometry.
This Standard applies to the determination of lead in foods.
Method I – Graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry
2 Principle
After digestion treatment, the sample is atomized in a graphite furnace and the
absorbance is measured at 283.3 nm. Within a certain concentration range, the
absorbance value of lead is proportional to the lead content and can be compared
quantitatively with the standard series.

5.1.2 Liquid samples
For samples of soft drinks, alcoholic beverages, condiments, etc., shake well.
5.1.3 Semi-solid samples
Mix well.
5.2 Sample pretreatment
5.2.1 Wet digestion
Weigh 0.2 g ~ 3 g (accurate to 0.001 g) of solid sample or accurately transfer 0.50 mL
~ 5.00 mL of liquid sample into a graduated digestion tube. For samples containing
ethanol or carbon dioxide, first heat at low temperature on an electric hot plate to
remove ethanol or carbon dioxide; add 10 mL of nitric acid and 0.5 mL of perchloric
acid; put a few glass beads; digest it on an adjustable electric furnace (reference
conditions: 120 °C/0.5 h ~ 1 h; heated to 180 °C/2 h ~ 4 h, heated to 200 °C ~ 220 °C).
If the digestion solution is brown, add a small amount of nitric acid and digest until
white smoke is emitted and the digestion solution is colorless, transparent or slightly
yellow. Remove the remaining acid until almost dry; stop digestion; cool and add water
to adjust the volume to 10 mL or 25 mL; mix well and set aside. Do a reagent blank test
at the same time. Alternatively, use an Erlenmeyer flask and perform wet digestion on
an adjustable electric hot plate according to the above operation methods.
Note: The added volume of nitric acid and perchloric acid can be adjusted according to
the actual situation.
5.2.2 Microwave digestion
Weigh 0.2 g ~ 2 g (accurate to 0.001 g) of the solid sample or accurately transfer 0.50
mL ~ 3.00 mL of the liquid sample into the microwave digestion tank. For samples
containing ethanol or carbon dioxide, first heat at low temperature on an electric hot
plate to remove the ethanol or carbon dioxide; add 5 mL ~ 10 mL of nitric acid (the
amount of nitric acid used can be adjusted according to the weighing amount and
properties of the sample); digest the sample according to the operating steps of
microwave digestion. For digestion conditions, refer to Appendix A. After cooling, take
out the digestion tank and remove the remaining acid on the electric hot plate at 140 °C
~ 160 °C until it is almost dry. After the digestion tank cools off, transfer the digestion
solution to a 10 mL or 25 mL volumetric flask; use a small amount of water to wash the
digestion tank 2 ~ 3 times; combine the cleaning mixture in the volumetric flask and
use water to adjust the volume to the mark; mix well and set aside. Do a reagent blank
test at the same time.
5.2.3 Pressure tank digestion
Weigh 0.2 g ~ 2 g (accurate to 0.001 g) of the solid sample or accurately transfer 0.50
mL ~ 5.00 mL of the liquid sample into the digestion inner tank. For samples containing
ethanol or carbon dioxide, first heat at low temperature on an electric hot plate to
remove the ethanol or carbon dioxide; add 5 mL ~ 10 mL of nitric acid (the amount of
nitric acid used can be adjusted according to the weighing amount and properties of the
sample). Close the inner cover; screw the stainless-steel outer cover tightly; put it in a
constant-temperature drying oven; keep it at 140 °C ~ 160 °C for 4 h ~ 5 h. After cooling,
slowly unscrew the outer tank, take out the digestion inner tank, and place it on an
adjustable electric hot plate to remove the remaining acid at 140 °C ~ 160 °C until it is
almost dry. After cooling, transfer the digestion solution to a 10 mL or 25 mL volumetric
flask; use a small amount of water to wash the inner tank and inner cover 2 ~ 3 times;
combine the cleaning mixture in the volumetric flask; use water to dilute to the mark;
mix well and set aside. Do a reagent blank test at the same time.

and instant noodle salt packets can be desalinated. For details, see Appendix B.

solution and 5 μL of ammonium dihydrogen phosphate-palladium nitrate solution (the
optimal injection volume and optimal matrix modifier can be determined according to
the instrument used, and samples passing through the solid-phase extraction column do
not need to be added with matrix modifier) into the graphite furnace at the same time,
and measure their absorbance values after atomization. Make a standard curve with the
mass concentration as the abscissa and the absorbance value as the ordinate.
5.3.3 Determination of sample solution
Under the same experiment conditions as the measurement of the standard solution,
inject 10 μL of blank solution or sample solution and 5 μL of ammonium dihydrogen
phosphate-palladium nitrate solution (the optimal injection volume can be determined
according to the instrument used) into the graphite furnace at the same time, which can
be omitted for the sample passing through the solid-phase extraction column; measure
its absorbance value after atomization; compare it quantitatively with the standard
series.
