A new approach to performing extraction and preconcentration employing functionalized magnetic nanoparticles for the determination of trace metals is presented. Alumina-coated iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized and used as the solid support. The nanoparticles were functionalized with sodium dodecyl sulfate and used as adsorbents for solid phase extraction of the analyte. Extraction, elution. and detection procedures were performed sequentially in the sequential injection lab-on-valve (SI-LOV) system followed by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS). Mixtures of hydrophobic analytes were successfully extracted from solution using the synthesized magnetic adsorbents. The potential use of the established scheme was demonstrated by taking cobalt as a model analyte. Under the optimal conditions, the calibration curve showed an excellent linearity in the concentration range of 0.01-5 mu g L-1, and the relative standard deviation was 2.8% at the 0.5 mu g L-1 level (n = 11). The limit of detection was 6 ng L-1 with a sampling frequency of 18 h(-1). The present method has been successfully applied to cobalt determination in water samples and two certified reference materials. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
