TY-J10 Soil Heavy Metal Special Detector
model: TY-J10
Food, soil, and water quality are gradually polluted by industrial waste gas, wastewater, and waste residue. Some people even directly use industrial wastewater to irrigate crops, causing a large accumulation of heavy metals such as cadmium, lead, arsenic, chromium, mercury, nickel, iron, aluminum, zinc, manganese, and copper in the soil tillage layer, especially in urban suburbs where the phenomenon is more serious; In addition, the extensive use of inorganic chemical pesticides has led to serious exceedance of heavy metal content in vegetables and fish, continuously accumulating in the human body, resulting in chronic heavy metal poisoning among consumers. There have been multiple incidents of collective heavy metal poisoning in China, which have attracted high attention from the government and various sectors of society. However, the current heavy metal determination methods have slow determination speed, complicated steps, and expensive instruments. Based on this situation, we have developed a rapid determination method for heavy metals, which can be used for rapid combined determination of lead, arsenic, chromium, cadmium, mercury, etc. in samples such as vegetables, food, soil, organic fertilizers, and tobacco leaves.
1Detection principle:
(1) After digestion of the sample, all forms of heavy metals (including arsenic, lead, cadmium, chromium, mercury, nickel, iron, aluminum, zinc, manganese, copper, etc.) are converted into ionic forms. After adding relevant detection reagents, the color develops. Within a certain concentration range, the depth of the solution color is proportional to the content of heavy metals, following the Lambert Beer law. The content value is then measured by instruments and compared with the national standard for the safety and quality of agricultural products and the allowable limit for pollution-free vegetable safety requirements to determine the content of heavy metals in vegetable samples.
(2) Detection principles and standards for various heavy metals
1. The detection principle and adopted standards of heavy metal arsenic
Adopting the national standard (GB/T50091.1-2003) borohydride reduction colorimetric method, the sample is digested, potassium iodide thiourea is added and heated to reduce pentavalent arsenic to trivalent arsenic. Under acidic conditions, potassium borohydride reduces trivalent arsenic to negative trivalent, forming arsine, which is introduced into the absorption solution and appears yellow. The arsenic content is detected by the instrument.
2. The detection principle and adopted standards of heavy metal lead
The national standard (GB/T5009.12-2003) dithizone colorimetric method is adopted, which means that after digestion of the sample, under weakly alkaline conditions, lead ions form a red complex with dithizone, dissolve in chloroform, and perform colorimetric determination.
3. The detection principle and adopted standards of heavy metal chromium
After digestion of the sample, in the presence of divalent manganese, chromium ions react with diphenylcarbazide to form a purple red complex. The color of the complex is directly proportional to the hexavalent chromium content, and the chromium content can be determined by colorimetric analysis.
4. The detection principle and adopted standards of heavy metal cadmium
Using the national standard (GB/T5009.15-2003) colorimetric method, after digestion of the sample, under alkaline conditions, cadmium ions react with 6-bromophenylthiazolylazo naphthol to form a red complex, which is dissolved in chloroform for colorimetric determination.
5. The detection principle and adopted standards of heavy metal mercury
The national standard (GB/T5009.17-2003) dithizone colorimetric method is adopted, which means that after digestion of the sample, under acidic conditions, mercury ions form an orange red complex with dithizone, dissolve in chloroform, and perform colorimetric determination.
