Quantification of Fluoride in Food by Microwave Acid Digestion and Fluoride Ion-Selective Electrode

Abstract: To quantify fluoride in food it is necessary to extract the fluoride from the matrix. Dry ashing (alkali fusion) and facilitated diffusion are the methods most commonly used, but their application requires lengthy treatments. The present study proposes the use of a microwave oven and 7 mol/L nitric acid for simple, rapid digestion of foods for fluoride analysis. The analyte is subsequently quantified by fluoride ion-selective electrode. The various steps of the method were optimized and an in-house validation … Show more

“…This lack of attention probably depends on the fact that fluoride ion is not routinely analyzed by the organizations responsible for food safety and health because of a number of analytical difficulties associated with its reliable quantification in foodstuffs (Rocha et al, 2013). Moreover, a careful analysis of the scarce literature concerning this aim allows us to conclude that a reliable and validated method devoted to the measure of the level of free fluoride ions in honey samples is at the moment absent.…”

“…10 The sensitive fluoride ions assays are usually performed with a wealth of established techniques including ion chromatography, 19 FNMR, fluoride ions selective electrodes and fluorescence capillary electrophoresis. [11][12][13][14] As these analyses are expensive, timeconsuming, and require tedious sample pretreatments and enrichments, and thus there exists a great demand to develop an ultrasensitive, simple, rapid and reliable assay of fluoride ions for improving drinking water safety and environmental protection.…”

“…The limit of detection (0.130 mg / kg), accuracy (92%), recovery (84-101%) and sensitivity (1-8%) were determined. These analytical properties are satisfactory and have demonstrated the suitability of the fluoride analysis method in various types of foods [9].…”
