ICP-MS Simultaneous Determination of Inorganic Elements in Loquat Leaves

Sample of loquat leaves was digested with HNO3 and H2O2 in PTFE vessel heated in microwave oven.Fourteen inorganic elements in the sample solution were determined by ICP-MS.As shown by the data of determination of Ca,Mn,Mg,P and Fe,ranges of linearity were obtained in the range of 0-200 μg·L-1.Tests for recovery were carried out by standard addition method and values of recovery for the 14 elements determined were in the range of 90%-110%.Detection limits for these elements were in the range from 0.002 to 0.4 μg·L-1.
