“…The recombination spectrum for an Al matrix (1 g L -1 Al) which increases the background intensity near 200 nm up to a factor of six was described earlier [14,15] In the case of spectral interferences VUV lines are also very useful. An example for improved flexibility in the line selection using the spectral range 125-180 nm is shown in Fig.…”

A new axially viewed ICP optical emission spectrometer featuring an argon-filled optic and CCD detectors was evaluated for the application of prominent spectral lines in the 125-180 nm range. This wavelength range was investigated for several analytical applications of inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). There are different advantages for the application of spectral lines below 180 nm. A number of elements, such as Al, Br, Cl, Ga, Ge, I, In, N, P, Pb, Pt, S and Te, were found to have the most intense spectral lines in the wavelength range from 125-180 nm. Compared with lines above 180 nm higher signal-to-background ratios were found. Low limits of detection using pneumatic nebulization of aqueous solutions for sample introduction were calculated for Al II 167.080 nm (0.04 microg L(-1)), Br I 154.065 nm (9 microg L(-1)), Cl I 134.724 nm (19 microg L(-1)), Ga II 141.444 nm (0.8 microg L(-1)), Ge II 164.919 nm (1.3 microg L(-1)), II 142.549 nm (13 microg L(-1)), In II 158.583 nm (0.2 microg L(-1)), P I 177.500 nm (0.9 microg L(-1)), Pb II 168.215 nm (1.5 microg L(-1)), Pt II 177.709 nm (2.6 microg L(-1)), S I 180.731 nm (1.9 microg L(-1)) and Te I 170.00 nm (4.6 microg L(-1)). Numerous application examples for the use of those lines and other important spectral lines below 180 nm are given. Because of fewer emission lines from transition elements, such as Fe, Co, Cr, lines below 180 nm often offer freedom from spectral interferences. Additional lines of lower intensity for the determination of higher elemental concentrations are also available in the vacuum ultraviolet spectral range. This is specially useful when the concentrations are not in the linear range of calibration curves obtained with commonly used lines.

“…The attributes and limitations of ICP-OES have been discussed by several authors (Kornblum and De Galan, 1977;Jarosz et al, 1978;Barnes and Boumans, 1978;Larson and Fassel, 1979;Uchida et al, 1981;Ingle and Crouch, 1988;Tripković and Holclajtner-Antunović, 1993;Galley and Hieftje, 1994;Hou and Jones, 2000;Hill, 2008;Butcher, 2010;Thompson, 2012). Critical parameters that affect the ICP-OES analytical performance and require optimization are: RF power, nebulizer gas flow rate, viewing height and sample introduction rate (Boumans, 1979;Zhaneni and Wagatsuma, 2002;Raaijmakers et al, 1983;Boumans, 1987).…”

Inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) determination of platinum was optimized using 2-level, 4-factor full factorial design and response surface methodologies. Four factors, namely carrier gas flow rate, sample solution flow rate as represented by the pump speed, plasma observation height and RF power, were employed in the factorial design. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) at a p-value significance level of 0.05 was used to assess the significance of the factors on platinum analytical line emission intensity. The main effects of carrier gas flow rate and plasma power, and the interaction effect of carrier gas flow rate and plasma power, were found to be statistically significant and were varied during subsequent optimization procedure using contour map and response surface methodologies. Plasma observation height and pump speed were found to have an insignificant effect on the platinum intensity and were held constant at 10 mm above the load coil and 30 revolutions per minute, respectively during the optimization procedure. The optimized procedure comprised of a carrier gas flow rate of 0.70 L/min and plasma power of 1400 W, and was validated by analysis of Certified Reference Materials (CRMs) AMIS 0132 for low platinum grades and AMIS 0164 for high platinum grades. The instrumental limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantization (LOQ) obtained were 0.035 µg/g Pt and 0.105 µg/g Pt, respectively, and highly precise determinations of Pt (0.21 to 0.24% RSD) were obtained when three batches of PMG ore floatation concentrates were analyzed using the optimized ICP-OES parameters.

Posthatched naive or inoculated male broiler chicks were kept in separate rooms. An inoculum was prepared from intestines of stunting-syndrome affected broiler chicks. Tap water was supplied from 2 L cups, 1 cup per pen. In the Ist experiment, the naive chicks were provided with tap water only and the inoculated ones had free access to tap water or to an electrolyte solution. In the 2nd experiment, the naive and inoculated birds had free access to water in addition to an electrolyte solution. Supplementation was provided up to 3 weeks of age; thereafter all chicks had access to tap water only. Water or electrolyte consumption and body weight (BW) were determined. Total water intake of inoculated chicks was higher than that of naive counterparts (P<0.001). Electrolyte supplementation increased drinking (P<0.001) in inoculated birds more than in naive ones. At 1 week old the weight of the inoculated birds was about 64% of the weight of naive ones; at the age of 4 and 6 weeks it was about 74% and 86% respectively. Compensatory growth was most apparent in the inoculated chicks provided with electrolyte solution. At the age of 6 weeks, the latter exceeded the BW of the exclusively water supplied counterparts by 327 g. Electrolyte supplementation up to the age of 3 weeks had no effect on the naive counterparts. Osmolality was reduced slightly, but very significantly by inoculation; electrolyte supply had no effect on this variable. Sodium concentration in the plasma was higher in the inoculated birds. Plasma albumin was markedly reduced by inoculation on weeks 1 and 2. Whereas the inoculated chicks supplied with electrolytes resumed the level plasma albumin level of the naive chicks on week 3, an over-compensation occurred in the inoculated-water-supplied (IW) group, and they surpassed the naive chicks significantly. Blood hematocrit increased significantly with age; inoculation, age and/or electrolyte supplementation had no effect on this variable. Sodium-dependent glucose transport rates were enhanced in vesicles obtained from inoculated chicks as compared to naive ones. While electrolyte supplementation had no effect on glucose active transport in naive chicks, electrolyte supplementation decreased rates of glucose active transport in inoculated ones. These data demonstrate that electrolyte supplementation during the early age may be used to enhance the tolerance of broiler chicks to stunting-syndrome by improving food and water consumption, and subsequently growth rate during and after cessation of electrolyte supply.
