Low and high resolution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) coupled with ion chromatography (IC) has been investigated for speciation of Cr(III) and Cr(VI). In particular, the interference of ArC^+formed by the carbon in a sample on the simultaneous determination of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) has been studied. In chemical speciation, this study shows that quadrupole type ICP-MS with low resolution has a limitation of simultaneous determination fo chromium species if the sample contains the carbon elements. The interference problems can be solved by high resolution ICP-MS.

In this study, we compared three different pretreatment methods, such as block digestion, microwave digestion and solvent injection, coupled with Octopole Reaction System(ORS)-ICP-MS was used for the quantification of heavy metals in mainstream smoke of 2R4F reference cigarette, and then evaluated those efficiencies in the recovery, repeatability and reproducibility. In all methods, volatile heavy metals, As, showed the highest CV value, and Cd showed the lowest one. However, the solvent injection method showed the most stable recovery rate and CV value of 2.36 %. This method showed also advantages in time-consuming and compatibility with ICP-MS system. This results demonstrate that solvent injection method can be recommended as a superior pretreatment procedure to be able to reduce contaminants and spectral interference as well as loss of the elements interested.

The simultaneous determination of As(III), As(V), and DMA has been performed by ion chromatography (IC) coupled with inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The separation of the three arsenic species was achieved by an anionic separator column (AS 7) with an isocratic elution system. The separated species were directly detected by ICP-MS as an element-selective detection method. The IC-ICP-MS technique was applied for the determination of arsenic species in a NIST SRM 1643d water sample. An As(III) only was detected in the sample. The detection limits of As(III), As(V) and DMA were 0.31, 0.45, and 2.09 ng/mL, respectively. It was also applied for the determination of arsenic species in a human urine obtained by a volunteer, and three arsenic species were identified. The determination of total As in human urines that were obtained from 25 volunteers at the different age was also carried out by ICP-MS.

유도결합 플라스마 질량분석기(ICP-MS)와 유도결합 플라스마 원자방출분광기 (ICP-AES)를 이용하여 상업적으로 유통되고 있는 4 종의 분무기(Meinhard, ESI PFA, Cross-flow, Babington)와 한국표준과학연구원(KRISS)에서 직접 제작한 분무기인 KRISS Inert 분무기와 KRISS conespray 분무기의 성능을 평가하였다. 각 분무기의 압력, 시료주입량의 변화에 따른 시료주입 효율을 조사하였으며 ICP-MS와 ICP-AES에 연결하였을 때 시료주입량의 변화에 따른 감도, 안정성, 바탕선 세기, 산화물과 수소화물의 생성 비율을 조사하였다. 시료의 종류, 시료 양의 제한성, 분석기기의 종류, 분석 원소에 따라 가장 적합한 분무기를 선택해야 높은 감도, 낮은 바탕값, 안정한 신호세기 등의 좋은 분석결과를 얻을 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

An ultra-sensitive detection method for small molecules such as antibiotics was developed using ICP-MS with magnetic and $TiO_2$ nanoparticles. Since most of the antibiotics are too small to employ a sandwich-type extraction through an immunoreaction, a non-specific platform was employed, in which the target was extracted by magnetic separation, followed by tagging with $TiO_2$ nanoparticles of 11.2 nm for ICP-MS measurement. The detection limit for salinomycin obtained from spiked serum samples was $0.4ag\;mL^{-1}$ (${\pm}10.3%$), which was about $1.5{\times}10^6$ times lower than that of LC-MS/MS and about $1.2{\times}10^{11}$ times better than that of ELISA. Such an excellent sensitivity enabled us to study the toxicity of antibiotics exposed to human beings by determining them in serum.

본 연구에서는 암석과 퇴적물 시료를 대상으로 이플루오린화 암모늄을 이용한 시료 분해법을 적용하여 open vessel digestion 후 유도결합 플라즈마 질량분석법(Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, ICP/MS)으로 게르마늄을 분석하였다. 미국 지질조사소 표준물질 중 QLO-1, SDO-1을 사용하였고, 실제 시료로 GeoPT용 퇴적물, 현무암, 점토를 사용하였다. 휘발하여 손실되기 쉬운 것으로 알려진 게르마늄을 이플루오린화 암모늄($NH_4HF_2$) 시료 분해법을 사용함으로서 게르마늄 휘발 억제와 동시에 암석 및 퇴적물을 open vessel digestion하에서 간단하고 빠르게 분해 가능하였으며, 또한 이플루오린화 암모늄 분해법에 과산화수소를 함께 사용해도 게르마늄의 회수율에 영향을 끼치지 않았다. ICP/MS에 의한 게르마늄 분석 결과, MDL (method detection limit)은 0.015 ${\mu}g/g$, 게르마늄 회수율은 106~128% 이었다.

북한의 평안분지 서부의 증산-평원지역에 분포하는 선캠브리아 기저를 이루는 화강편마암에서 분리한 저콘에 대하여 LA-ICP-MS U-Pb 연대측정을 실시하였다. 그 결과 $1,873{\pm}19(2{\sigma})$Ma의 일치곡선연령을 구하였으며 이는 고원생대의 화강암질 화성활동을 나타낸다. 한반도의 선캠브리아 기저지각 암석들로부터 SHRIMP 및 LA-ICP-MS 등의 방법에 의해 구한 최근의 정밀한 연대자료를 살펴보면 영남육괴, 경기육괴, 낭림육괴 등 한반도 전역에서 이 화강편마암과 마찬가지로 ${\sim}$1870 Ma의 연령이 가장 빈도 높게 보고되고 있다. 이 시기의 지질사건들은 지역에 따라 화강암질 화성활동뿐만 아니라 고온의 광역변성작용도 함께 나타나는 것으로 해석되고 있다. 인접한 중국의 북중국과 남중국지괴들 역시 유사한 시기의 화성 및 변성활동들이 보고되고 있으며 한반도의 선캠브리아 육괴들이 북중국과 남중국 어느 지괴와 대비되는지는 더 많은 자료와 연구가 필요하다.

Objectives: The aims of this study were to compare concentrations and the correspondence of human blood cadmium by using graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GF-AAS) and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), which are representative methods of heavy metal analysis. Methods: We randomly selected 79 people who agreed to participate in the research project. After confirming the linearity of the calibration curves for GF-AAS and ICP-MS, the concentrations of cadmium in a quality control standard material and blood samples were measured, and the correlation and the degree of agreement were compared. Results: The detection limit of ICP-MS (IDL: $0.000{\mu}g/L$, MDL: $0.06{\mu}g/L$) was lower than that of GF-AAS (IDL: $0.085{\mu}g/L$, MDL: $0.327{\mu}g/L$). The coefficient of variation of the quality control standard material showed stable values for both ICP-MS (clinchek-1: 5.35%, clinchek-2: 6.22%) and GF-AAS (clinchek-1: 7.92%, clinchek-2: 5.22%). Recovery was relatively high for both ICP-MS (clinchek-1: 95.1%, clinchek-2: 92.8%) and GF-AAS (clinchek-1: 91.4%, clinchek-2: 98.8%), with more than 90%. The geometric mean, median, and percentile of blood samples were all similar. The agreement of the two instruments compared with the bias of the analytical values found that about 81% of the analytical values were within ${\pm}30%$ of the deviation from the ideal reference line (y=0). As a result of the agreement limit, the value included in the confidence interval was about 94%, which shows high agreement. Conclusion: In this study, we confirmed there was no significant difference in concentrations of a quality control standard material and blood samples. Since ICP-MS showed lower concentrations than GF-AAS at concentrations below the method detection limit of GF-AAS, it is expected that more precise results will be obtained by analyzing blood cadmium with ICP-MS.

A rapid and inexpensive method was developed for the determination of trace silver in geological samples by using sulfhydryl cotton coupled with ICP-MS. The interferences such as $^{90}Zr$, $^{92}Mo$ and $^{93}Nb$ on silver were investigated in detail. Sulfhydryl cotton was found to be an effective adsorbent for separation of interferences for Ag in the solutions. Excellent agreements with the certified values were obtained for all the certified reference materials. The memory effects of Ag by ICP-MS were examined by using different agents, including water, nitric acid, and HCl-thiourea to all standards/samples. The agents also acted as cleansing solutions. A combination of HCl with thiourea gave the minimum memory effect. For comparison of results, a proposed Chinese Geology Survey procedure DC-ARC-AES and a direct determination pretreatment method of ICP-MS (water bath- auqa regia digestion) were studied. Under optimal conditions, the detection limits of our method for $^{107}Ag$ and $^{109}Ag$ were 1.2 ng/g and 1.3 ng/g, which offered much better accuracy for some difficult analysis geological samples such as GBW07604, GBW07605.
