1 Scope

Part 1 of this Standard specifies the methods for the determination of total arsenic in food. Methods I and II of Part 1 of this Standard apply to the determination of total arsenic in food. Method 3 applies to the determination of total arsenic in food (except milk powder and prepared milk powder, oils and fats and their products, condiments, and special dietary foods). Part 2 of this Standard specifies the methods for the determination of inorganic arsenic in food. Part 2 of this Standard applies to the determination of inorganic arsenic in cereals and their products, aquatic animals and their products, edible fungi and their products, oils and fats and their products, condiments, supplementary foods for infants and young children, algae and their products. Part 1.Determination of total arsenic in food Method 1 -- Hydride generation atomic fluorescence spectrometry

2 Principle

After the sample is digested, thiourea is added to pre-reduce the pentavalent arsenic to trivalent arsenic, and then sodium borohydride or potassium borohydride is added to reduce the trivalent arsenic to generate arsine, which is loaded into the quartz atomizer by argon gas and decomposed into atomic arsenic. The atomic arsenic produces atomic fluorescence under the excitation of the emitted light of the arsenic hollow cathode lamp. Under fixed conditions, its fluorescence intensity is proportional to the arsenic concentration in the solution being tested. It is quantitatively determined by external standard method.

5 Analysis procedure

5.1 Preparation of samples 5.2 Digestion of samples 5.2.1 Wet digestion Weigh 0.5 g ~ 2.5 g (accurate to 0.001 g) of solid samples or 5.0 g ~ 10.0 g (accurate to 0.001 g) of liquid samples into a digestion bottle or digestion tube, add 20 mL of nitric acid, 4 mL of perchloric acid and 1.25 mL of sulfuric acid and leave overnight. The next day, heat and digest at 120 ℃ ~ 200 ℃ step by step. If there are still undecomposed substances or the color becomes darker when the digestion solution reaches about 5 mL, add 5 mL ~ 10 mL of nitric acid, and then digest to about 2 mL. Repeat this 2 to 3 times, taking care to avoid carbonization, and continue heating and digestion until the digestion solution is about 1 mL, which is colorless and clear, and the digestion bottle or digestion tube is filled with white smoke (for samples of aquatic animals and their products, edible fungi and their products, fish oil and their products, krill oil and their products, algae and their products which have high organic arsenic, raise the digestion temperature to 280 ℃ ~ 300 ℃ and continue to heat and digest until the digestion solution is about 0.5 mL, which is colorless and clear, and the digestion bottle or digestion tube is filled with white smoke). After cooling, slowly add about 10 mL of water along the wall of the digestion container, and then evaporate until the digestion bottle or digestion tube is filled with white smoke. Cool down, transfer the digestion solution with water into a 25 mL volumetric flask or colorimetric tube, add 2 mL of thiourea + ascorbic acid solution, dilute to the mark with water, mix well, and leave it for 30 min before determination. Do a blank test at the same time. 5.2.2 Dry ashing method Weigh 1.0 g ~ 2.5 g (accurate to 0.001 g) of solid samples or weigh 4.0 g (accurate to 0.001 g) of liquid samples (excluding samples of oils and fats), and place it in a 50 mL ~ 100 mL crucible. Add 10 mL of magnesium nitrate solution (150 g/L) and mix well, evaporate to dryness over low heat, and cover the dry residue with 1 g of magnesium oxide (for samples of oils and fats, weigh 1.00 g in a 50 mL ~ 100 mL crucible, and directly add 0.2 g of magnesium oxide to cover on oils and fats), carbonize on an electric furnace until there is no black smoke, then transfer it to a 550 ℃ muffle furnace for ashing for 4 h. Take it out and let it cool, carefully add 5 mL ~ 10 mL of hydrochloric acid solution (1 + 1) to neutralize the magnesium oxide and dissolve the ash, transfer it to a 25 mL volumetric flask or colorimetric tube, add 2 mL of thiourea + ascorbic acid solution to the volumetric flask or colorimetric tube, wash the crucible with sulfuric acid solution (1 + 9) in batches, combine the washing liquids and dilute to the mark, mix well, and leave it for 30 min before determination. Do a blank test at the same time. 5.2.3 Microwave digestion method Weigh 0.2 g ~ 0.8 g (accurate to 0.001 g) of solid samples and samples of oils and fats and their products, or weigh 1.0 g ~ 3.0 g (accurate to 0.001 g) of samples containing more water or liquid samples into a digestion tank, add 5 mL ~ 8 mL of nitric acid, and leave it for more than 30 min. For samples that are difficult to digest such as meat, oils, and fats, add 0.5 mL ~ 1 mL of hydrogen peroxide, cover the safety valve, and put the digestion tank into the microwave digestion system. According to different types of samples, set up appropriate microwave digestion procedures (see Annex A, Table A.1), and perform digestion according to relevant steps. After digestion, reduce acid to 1 mL ~ 2 mL at 135 °C ~ 145 °C. Transfer the digestion solution to a 25 mL volumetric flask or colorimetric tube, wash the digestion tank 3 times with a small amount of sulfuric acid solution (1 + 9), combine the washing liquid into the volumetric flask or colorimetric tube and add 2 mL of thiourea + ascorbic acid solution, dilute to mark with sulfuric acid solution (1 + 9), mix well, and leave it for 30 min before determination. Do a blank test at the same time. 5.2.4 Pressure tank digestion method Weigh 0.2 g ~ 1.0 g (accurate to 0.001 g) of solid samples and samples of oils and fats and their products, or weigh 1.0 g ~ 5.0 g (accurate to 0.001 g) of fresh samples or liquid samples into a digestion inner tank, and add 5 mL of nitric acid and soak overnight. Cover the inner cover, tighten the stainless steel jacket, put it into a constant temperature drying oven, keep it at 140 ℃ ~ 160 ℃ for 3 h ~ 4 h, naturally cool to room temperature, then slowly loosen the stainless steel jacket, take out the digestion inner tank, and place it on a temperature-controlled electric heating plate at 135 ℃ ~ 145 ℃ to reduce acid to 1 mL ~ 2 mL. Transfer the digestion solution to a 25 mL volumetric flask or colorimetric tube, wash the digestion tank 3 times with a small amount of sulfuric acid solution (1 + 9), combine the washing liquid into the volumetric flask or colorimetric tube and add 2 mL of thiourea + ascorbic acid solution, dilute to mark with sulfuric acid solution (1 + 9), mix well, and leave it for 30 min before determination. Do a blank test at the same time. NOTE. The pressure tank digestion method does not apply to samples with complex matrices such as aquatic animals and their products, edible fungi and their products, fish oil, krill oil and their products, aquatic condiments, algae and their products, which have a high organic arsenic content. 5.3 Reference conditions for instruments Negative high voltage. 260 V; arsenic hollow cathode lamp current. 50 mA ~ 80 mA; carrier gas. argon; carrier gas flow rate. 500 mL/min; shielding gas flow rate. 800 mL/min; determination method. fluorescence intensity; reading method. peak area. 5.4 Plotting of standard curve After the instrument is preheated and stabilized, the reagent blank and standard series solutions are introduced into the instrument in sequence to determine the atomic fluorescence intensity. Taking the atomic fluorescence intensity as the ordinate and the arsenic mass concentration as the abscissa, plot a standard curve and obtain the regression equation. 5.5 Determination of sample solution Under the same conditions, introduce the blank solution and sample solution into the instrument for determination. The mass concentration of arsenic in the sample is calculated according to the regression equation.

6 Expression of analysis results

The arsenic content in the sample is calculated according to formula (1). X - the arsenic content in the sample, in milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg); ρ - the arsenic content in the sample solution, in micrograms per liter (μg/L); ρ0 - the arsenic content in the blank solution, in micrograms per liter (μg/L); V - the constant volume of the sample digestion solution, in milliliters (mL); 1000 - the conversion factor; m - the weighing mass of the sample, in grams (g). When the arsenic content is ≥ 1.00 mg/kg, the calculation results shall retain 3 significant figures; when the arsenic content is < 1.00 mg/kg, the calculation results shall retain 2 significant figures.

7 Precision

When the arsenic content in the sample is greater than 1.00 mg/kg, the absolute difference between the two independent determination results obtained under repeatability conditions shall not exceed 10 % of the arithmetic mean; when it is less than or equal to 1.00 mg/kg and greater than 0.10 mg/kg, the absolute difference between two independent determination results obtained under repeatability conditions shall not exceed 15 % of the arithmetic mean; when it is less than or equal to 0.10 mg/kg, the absolute difference between two independent determination results obtained under repeatability conditions shall not exceed 20 % of the arithmetic mean.

8 Others

When the weighing mass of a solid sample is 1.0 g and the constant volume is 25 mL, the method detection limit is 0.01 mg/kg and the method quantitation limit is 0.04 mg/kg. When the sampling volume of a liquid sample is 2 g and the constant volume is 25 mL, the method detection limit is 0.005 mg/kg and the method quantitation limit is 0.02 mg/kg.

After digestion treatment, the sample is atomized in a graphite furnace and the absorbance is measured at 193.7 nm. Within a certain concentration range, the absorbance value of arsenic is proportional to the arsenic content. It is quantitatively determined by external standard method. 10 Reagents and materials Unless otherwise stated, the reagents used in this method are guarantee reagents, and the water is Grade 1 water specified in GB/T 6682. 10.1 Reagents 10.3 Reference material Arsenic trioxide (As2O3, CAS number. 1327-53-3) reference material. purity ≥ 99.5 %. 10.4 Preparation of standard solutions 11 Instruments and equipment 12 Analysis procedure 12.1 Preparation of samples Same as 5.1. 12.2 Digestion of samples 12.2.1 Microwave digestion method Weigh 0.2 g ~ 0.8 g (accurate to 0.001 g) of solid samples and samples of oils and fats and their products, or weigh 1.0 g ~ 3.0 g (accurate to 0.001 g) of samples containing more water or liquid samples into a digestion tank; add 5 mL ~ 8 mL of nitric acid and leave it for more than 30 min.
