“…Dimethylglyoxime, 15 dithiocarbamates, 16,26 hexylthioglycolates, 17 1-(2-thiazolylazo)-2-naphthol, 18 8-hydroxyquinoline, 19 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone, 20,21 neocuproine, 22 sodium di-n-popyldithiophosphinate, 23 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol (PAR), 24 ammonium pyrrolidindithiocarbamate (APDC), 25 1,10-phenanthroline, 27 have all been immobilized on various substrates and used for separation and preconcentration of metal ions. This paper reports a simple and rapid analytical procedure for preconcentration and determination of copper, zinc, cadmium, cobalt, nickel and lead in natural waters, using flame atomic absorption spectrometric detection, after chelation with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (Na-DDTC) and sorption on SPE membrane disk composed of octadecyl bonded silica.…”
