Preconcentration with Bacillus subtilis-Immobilized Amberlite XAD-16: Determination of Cu2+ and Ni2+ in River, Soil, and Vegetable Samples
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2015) Okumus, Veysi; Ozdemir, Sadin; Kilinc, Ersin; Dundar, Abdurrahman; Yuksel, Uyan; Baysal, Zubeyde; Klnç, Ersin
Solid-phase extraction (SPE) method was developed for the preconcentration of Cu2+ and Ni2+ before their determination by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). Bacillus subtilis-immobilized Amberlite XAD-16 was used as biosorbent. Effects of critical parameters such as pH, flow rate of samples, amount of Amberlite XAD-16 and biosorbent, sample volume, eluent type, and volume and concentration of eluent on column preconcentration of Cu2+ and Ni2+ were optimized. Applicability of the method was validated through the analysis of the certified reference tea sample (NCS ZC73014). Sensitivity of ICP-OES was improved by 36.4-fold for Cu2+ and 38.0-fold for Ni2+ by SPE-ICP-OES method. Limit of quantitation (LOQ) was found to be 0.7 and 1.1ng/ml for Cu2+ and Ni2+, respectively. Concentrations of Cu2+ and Ni2+ were determined by ICP-OES after application of developed method. Relative standard deviations (RSDs) were lower than 4.9% for Cu2+ and 7.9% for Ni2+. The Tigris River that irrigates a large agricultural part of Southeast Turkey is polluted by domestic and industrial wastes. Concentrations of Cu2+ and Ni2+ were determined in water, soil, and some edible vegetables as a biomonitor for heavy metal pollution.

Selective preconcentration of Lanthanum(III) by Coriolus versicolor immobilised on Amberlite XAD-4 and its determination by ICP-OES
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2014) Ozdemir, Sadin; Okumus, Veysi; Dundar, Abdurrahman; Celik, Kadir Serdar; Yuksel, Uyan; Kilinc, Ersin
Coriolus versicolor, a wood fungus, was immobilised on Amberlite XAD-4 and used as solid-phase biosorbent for preconcentrations of rare earth elements. La(III), Th(IV), U(IV) and Ce(III) were subjected to solid-phase extraction procedure. We observed that La(III) was selectively preconcentrated, while other ions remained in solution at pH 6.0. 5.0mL of 1.0molL(-1) HCl was used to elaute La(III) from column. 250mg of C. versicolor loaded on 1000mg of XAD-4 was optimised as solid-phase matrix. Concentrations of ions in solutions were determined by inductively coupled plasma- optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). The calibration plot after preconcentration was linear in the range from 1.0 to 50.0ngmL(-1) for La(III). Limit of detection was found as 0.27ngmL(-1) for La(III) by SPE method. Relative standard deviation was found lower than 6.7% for 1.0ngmL(-1) of La(III) solution (n=10). The sensitivity of ICP-OES was improved by a factor of 46.8. The applicability of the method was validated through the analysis of certified reference samples of tea (NCS ZC-73014) and spinach (NCS ZC-73013).
