Determination of Nickel in Foods
1 Scope
This standard specifies the graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry for determination of nickel content in foods.
This standard is applicable to determination of nickel content in various foods.
2 Principle
After digestion treatment, carry out graphite furnace atomization for the specimen and determine the absorbance at 232.0nm. Within certain concentration range, nickel absorbance value is in direct proportion to nickel content and is compared with standard series for quantification.

If the digestion solution becomes brown, add a small amount of nitric acid again, digest until white smoke appears; when the digestion solution becomes colorless and transparent or slightly yellow, take out the digestion tube, cool, scale the volume with water to 10mL and mix uniformly for standby. Meanwhile, carry out reagent blank test. Alternatively, adopt a conical flask, put on adjustable electric hot plate and carry out wet digestion according to the above-mentioned operation methods.
