1 Scope

This Standard specifies the determination method of antimony in foods by hydride atomic fluorescence spectrometry and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. This Standard is applicable to the determination of antimony in foods. Method I - Hydride Atomic Fluorescence Spectrometry

2 Principle

After the specimen is digested by acid heating, in an acidic medium, the antimony in the specimen reacts with sodium borohydride or potassium borohydride to generate volatile antimony hydride, which is carried into the atomizer by the carrier gas for atomization. Under the excitation of the antimony hollow cathode lamp, atomic fluorescence is generated, and its fluorescence intensity is proportional to the antimony content and is quantified by the external standard method.
