Abstract

This paper describes the combined use of a new preconcentration method using the Amberlite IRA-743 resin and high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry to determine simultaneously inorganic and organic selenium species in aquatic systems. The developed enrichment procedure, whose accuracy has been checked by recovery tests, is suitable for selenium speciation at environmental levels of 10 ng (Se) l(-1). The method has been applied to mineral and freshwater samples.
