The use of BIPEA samples allows the validation of the technique and the analytical method that was developed. The calculated recoveries are all acceptable. The ULTIMA 2 used with the AS 421 autosampler allows the user to run food, provender and nutritive samples with the same method. This contributes to the ease of use and reliability of the method and results.
ICP ATOMIC EMISSION SPECTROSCOPYAPPLICATION NOTE 38 Application of ICP-OES to the Analysis of Food andAgriculture: turkey, pork, hay and soy samples M. SORIN, Cana, Laboratoire Central, Ancenis, France Agnes COSNIER, HORUIBA Scientific Longjumeau, France Keywords: food, agriculture The determination of major elements in food,cereals or nutritive solutions is essential fornutritional significance. This necessitates a reli-able techniquefor good accuracy and preci-sion. The ULTIMA 2 ICP-AES spectrometer wasused. This paper presents a description of thetechnique,operating conditions and someresults of certified materials. 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 The preparation was done following the NormXPV 18-116, Dec 1995. 5 g of sample are calci-nated at 550 C during 6 hours. The ashes arelthen diluted with 37 % HCI and demineralizedwater (solution completed to 250 ml). The finaconcentration of acid is 2.5 %. 4 Calibration and analysis mode 6 multi-element standards were prepared in2.5% HCI. The solutions used for calibration arelisted in the Table 1 (in mg/L). 5 Instrument specification The work was performed on a ULTIMA 2 withthe specifications shown below.

Each sample has been digested twice tohave 2 analysis replicates. The obtained concentra-tion is the mean of the 2 calculated concentrationsusing 3 replicates each. They are compared withresults given by the Bureau Interprofessionel d'EtudesAnaytiques (BIPEA). This group organizes inter-lab-oratory tests in agriculture, food and environmen-tal fields. It allows the laboratories to assess the qual-ity ofthe analyses. They give concentration resultsofinter-comparison tests and associated errors at 3sigma.
