This application report shows that the ICP-AES is a suitable technique for the analysis of dialysis samples. The accuracy for the major elements can be improved by using Yttrium as internal standard. Dilution is not necessary because of the argon humidifier, sheath gas and the large internal diameter of the injector available. Because of these three features, solutions with very high level of salts can be run with ease.
ICP ATOMIC EMISSION SPECTROSCOPY ICP ATOMIC EMISSION SPECTROSCOPYAPPLICATION NOTE 23 1 Introduction Dialysis is a method of removing toxic sub-stances (impuritities or wastes) from the bloodwhen the kidneys are unable to do so. ICP-AESis particularly suitable to measure the dialysissolutions for the high accuracy analysis of Na,K, Ca, Mg and Cl. This Application Note pres-ents the preparation and analysis results of twodialysis samples. 2 Principle 2.1 Technique used The elemental analysis of these samples wasundertaken by Inductively Coupled PlasmaAtomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-AES). Thesample is nebulized then transferred to anargon plasma. It is decomposed, atomized andionized whereby the atoms and ions are excited.We measure the intensity of the light emittedwhen the atoms or ions return to lower levels ofenergy. Each element emits light at characteris-tic wavelengths and these lines can be used forquantitative analysis after a calibration. 2.2 Wavelength choice The choice of the wavelength in a given matrixcan be made using the "profile"function, or byusing Win-IMAGE, which is rapid semi-quantita-tive analysis mode using multiple wavelengths.The principle is the same in either case: recordthe scans of analytes at low concentration, andof the matrix. By superimposing the spectra, wesee possible interferences. 3 Sample preparation Two dialysis samples were analyzed, labeled S1and S2. These samples contain K, Ca, and Mg inthe chloride form. In sample S1, Na is present asa mixture of chloride and acetate. It is at a totalconcentration of 140 mmol/L, with the acetatecompound concentration of 35 mmol/L. In S2, the Na is present as the chlorideand is at a con-centration of 102 mmol/L. As the level of acetate is considered as negligi-ble, a solution of NaCl 6 g/L (105 mmoles/L) wasprepared to matrix match the standards. Fourstandards for K, Ca and Mg were prepared with250 ml of the Na solution and using 1,000 mg/LSpexCertiPrep Standards. Four standards werealso prepared for Na and Cl at concentrations of5, 6, 7 and 8.2 g/L of NaCl. 4. Instrument specification The work in this Application Note was undertak-en on a JY 2000. The specifications of thisinstrument are listed in Tables 1 and 2.

The analysis conditionswere the same for all elements.

Background correction is used for each ele-ment to compensate for background shifts causedby matrix or acidity differences. Table 6 on the fol-lowing page gives the result, expressed in pg/L(except where indicated) obtained for the semi-quantitative analysis and for a certified sample(NBS1643d). An alternative to the semi-quantitative method isan option called Win-IMAGE, which offers fullspectrum acquisition within 2 minutes. Full spec-trum acquisition gives the capability to undertakea semi-quantitative analysis, to perform retrospec-tive analysis and to use multiple wavelengths foran analysis of an element to improve accuracy. 7.2 Results The two samples were measured three times eachwith three replicates for each measurement, bothdirectly and with a dilution of 1:10. The results arepresented in Tables 7 to 12, with the concentra-tions given in mg/l and the RSD in%. The Cl was not measured in the diluted samplesbecause the 725 nm Cl line was not sufficientlysensitive. In the diluted samples, the far UV optionwould be necessary to measure the CI at the 134nm line. This is the most sensitive line for Cl andgives an LOD < 1000 ppb on the JY 2000, and<200ppb for the ULTIMA.
