Abstract:
ICP-MS both with conventional nebulization and with ETV (Electro Thermal Vaporization) have been applied for the determination of Pt in different matrices, e.g. occupational samples like urine and dust samples. It can be used also for other matrices like soil, plants, tissues etc. dependent on the concentration ranges and on a suitable decomposition method. The evaluation, based on the different Pt-isotopes and the quality criteria (detection limit, precision, accuracy) is discussed. Very low determination limits in the range of 1 ng/l can be achieved by ICP-MS-ETV using the standard addition method. This method allows to determine Pt in urine without any sample pretreatment.
