Arsenic species
The importance of arsenic speciation is being increasingly recognized by the scientific community because intrinsic arsenic species are known to exhibit differences in mobility, bioavailability and toxicity. A variety of organic and inorganic species have been identified in environmental and biological samples. The aim of this study was to determine the optimal operating parameters for chemical speciation of arsenic in human urine samples. HPLC/ICP-MS technique was employed to determine arsenobetaine (AsB), dimethyl arsenic acid (DMA), monomethyl arsenic acid (MMA), arsenite [As (III)] and arsenate [As (V)] in human urine samples. The separation was carried out on the Hamilton PRP X100 column, using two mobile phases: phase A containing 10 mM ammonium carbonate and phase B containing 20 mM ammonium carbonate at pH 8.83-9.35. The performance of the method was evaluated in terms of linearity, precision, accuracy and detection and quantification limits. The results demonstrate that the HPLC/ICP-MS methodology proposed is a sensitive, reproducible and accurate technique for the determination of arsenic species at trace levels in human urine.
