A novel liquid phase microextraction based on narrow bore-dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (NB-DLLME) is introduced and developed for preconcentration and extraction of cadmium in aquoeus samples using spectrophotometry. Unlike previous NB-DLLME methods, in this research work a solvent with a density higher than water (carbon tetrachloride) is used as extractant solvent. The effects of different parameters such as kind and volume of extractant and dispersive solvent, internal diameter and lengnth of narrow bore, and concentration of salt are studied and optimized. Under optimum conditions, dynamic range of calibration curve was linear in the range of 50-900 μg.L -1 . The detection limit and relative standard deveiation were calculated to be 6.3 μg.L -1 and 6.4%, respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
