Abstract
A new monitoring and evaluation technique for cadmium (Cd) and inorganic arsenic (i-As) in rice was developed, where the isotope dilution (ID) method was applied in combination with high performance liquid chromatography-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LC-ICP-MS), following heat-assisted extraction. Cadmium and i-As in a rice sample were extracted using the HNO3-H2O2 extractant, and an appropriate amount of enriched 111Cd was spiked into it. Cadmium and As species were measured simultaneously by LC-ICP-MS. The cadmium concentration was calculated from the isotope dilution analysis, and i-As was determined by the comparison (1 point calibration) method using additional 111Cd as an internal standard. The proposed method provides accurate and precise determination of Cd based on the isotope dilution analysis. Moreover, it can be applied to a rapid screening test to find contaminated rice samples, by means of monitoring the intensity ratios of natural 111Cd and i-As to the additional 111Cd. The developed technique was applied to analyzing multiple rice reference materials, and the measurement results of Cd and i-As agreed with the certified values within the uncertainty range. It is noted that the grain size of rice samples does not affect the extraction data, when the rice sample is crushed into powder less than 850 μm. The proposed method was very useful for the monitoring and evaluation of Cd and i-As in rice as a precise analytical method as well as a screening method.

Abstract
An online internal standard correction technique for high-performance liquid chromatography-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HPLC-ICP-MS) was designed using an autosampler system equipped with HPLC to improve the analytical precision. The autosampler was programed to operate in the following sequence: it first takes up a portion of sample solution, rinses the nozzle, sucks air as a spacer, takes an internal standard solution and finally injects all of them into a sampling loop through an injection valve. The repeatability of the sampling (amount 20 μL) was improved from 2.5 to 1.2% using the online internal standard technique. This technique was applied to As speciation in food samples, since food safety monitoring requires high precision and high sample throughput. Rhenium was very suitable as an internal standard element due to its retention time, peak shape and water solubility. This technique effectively improved the analytical precision of the As speciation and got rid of the operation of adding an internal standard solution into samples.

Green and Simple Extraction of Arsenic Species from Rice Flour Using a Novel Ultrasound-Assisted Enzymatic Hydrolysis Method. SEPARATIONS 2022.

Abstract
It is well established that arsenic (As) has many toxic compounds, and in particular, inorganic As (iAs) has been classified as a type-1 carcinogen. The measuring of As species in rice flour is of great importance since rice is a staple of the diet in many countries and a major contributor to As intake in the Asian diet. In this study, several solvents and techniques for the extraction of As species from rice flour samples prior to their analysis by HPLC-ICP-MS were investigated. The extraction methods were examined for their efficiency in extracting various arsenicals from a rice flour certified reference material, NMIJ-7532a, produced by the National Metrology Institute of Japan. Results show that ultrasound-assisted extraction at 60 °C for 1 h and then heating at 100 °C for 2.5 h in the oven using a thermostable α-amylase aqueous solution was highly effective in liberating the arsenic species. The recoveries of iAs and dimethylarsinic acid (DMA) in NMIJ-7532a were 99.7% ± 1.6% (n = 3) and 98.1% ± 2.3% (n = 3), respectively, in comparison with the certificated values. Thus, the proposed extraction method is a green procedure that does not use any acidic, basic, or organic solvents. Moreover, this extraction method could effectively maintain the integrity of the native arsenic species of As(III), As(V), monomethylarsonate (MMA), DMA, arsenobetaine (AsB) and arsenocholine (AsC). Under the optimum extraction, chromatography and ICP-MS conditions, the limits of detection (LOD) obtained were 0.47 ng g−1, 1.67 ng g−1 and 0.80 ng g−1 for As(III), As(V) and DMA, respectively, while the limits of quantification (LOQ) achieved were 1.51 ng g−1, 5.34 ng g−1 and 2.57 ng g−1 for As(III), As(V) and DMA, respectively. Subsequently, the proposed method was successfully applied to As speciation analysis for several rice flour samples collected from contaminated areas in China.

Abstract
Food is the major route of arsenic (As) intake for humans, and rice is the staple food for more than half of the world's population. Unfortunately, rice bioaccumulates large amounts of As from the paddy field, and the toxicity of this element in the kernel is closely linked to its chemical form. Therefore, it is of the utmost importance to have access to an integrated set of analytical methods, capable of measuring the concentration of As in its various chemical forms in soil and rice. Hence, the principal aim of this study was to assess and validate a group of inductively coupled plasma - mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and IC-ICP-MS (IC, Ionic Chromatography) methods designed to measure the amount of the total or extracted As and its main chemical species (As(III), As(V), monomethylarsonic acid, MMA, and dimethylarsinic acid, DMA) in flours of rice grain and in soils. Great attention has been given to the assessment and the optimization of extraction methods of As species from these matrices. No appreciable interconversion among As species has been observed using an aqueous solution 1 mol dm-3 of phosphoric acid and 0.5 mol dm-3 of L (+)-ascorbic acid for the extraction from soils, and an aqueous solution 0.2% (w/v) of nitric acid for the extraction from rice flour. Validation has been successfully accomplished in terms of limit of detection, limit of quantification, linearity and accuracy. In addition to many certified reference materials, these methods have been tested on real samples of soils and rice grains of the Aleramo genotype obtained through traditional or intermittent irrigation methods. Data obtained revealed the critical role of the intermittent irrigation methods in determining the nature and the amount of the As chemical species in rice grains as well as in soils. As(V) is the only species found in soil irrigated by sprinkling, while the most toxic As(III) dominates in soil irrigated by continuous flooding. On the other hand, the most abundant species found in continuously flooded Aleramo rice grains are As(III) and - mostly - DMA, whereas As(V), less toxic than As(III), represents 60% of the total inorganic compounds measured in sprinkler-irrigated rice. Lastly, the total amount of As measured in this rice is 3.8% of that measured in rice irrigated by continuous flooding.

Abstract
The objective of this work is the validation and implementation of an analytical method for the determination of arsenic chemical species in rice grain samples using High-performance liquid chromatography coupled to a hydride generator with atomic fluorescence detector (HPLC-HG-AFS). The extraction protocol developed was based on HNO3 0.28 M (90 °C, 2 h), microwave-assisted. The results showed recovery percentages of arsenite (As (III)) (99–101%), arsenate (As (V)) (91–96%), dimethylarsinic acid (DMA) (92–102%) and monomethylarsonic acid (MMA) (94–97%). The precision of the method presented coefficients of variation lower than 7% and 8% for repeatability and reproducibility respectively. The detection limits were 2.5, 3.75, 7.5 and 4.0 µg kg−1 for As (III), As (V), DMA and MMA respectively. The proposed methodology is reliable for the quantification of As species, because they are conserved during the extraction.The extraction protocol developed was based on Microwave-assisted acid extraction. This methodology offers good sensitivity, precision, accuracy, detection and quantification limits. It was successfully applied to determination of arsenic chemical species in rice grains.

Abstract
Ti (IV)-modified vinyl phosphate magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3 O4 @SiO2 @KH570-PO4 -Ti (IV)) was prepared for simultaneous extraction of multiple arsenic species, followed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)- inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) analysis. Inorganic arsenic (iAs), dimethyl arsenic acid (DMA), monomethyl arsenic acid (MMA), p-amino phenyl arsenic acid (p-ASA), 4-hdroxyphenylarsenic acid (4-OH), phenyl arsenic acid (PAA), and 3-nitro-4-hydroxyphenylarsenic acid (ROX) were investigated as interest analytes. It was found that they were quantitatively adsorbed on Fe3 O4 @SiO2 @KH570-PO4 -Ti (IV) at pH 5, and desorbed completely with 0.1 mol/L sodium hydroxide solution. Enrichment factor of 100-fold was obtained by consuming 100 mL sample solution. Under the optimal conditions, the method combining MSPE with HPLC-ICP-MS presented a linear range of 1-5000 ng/L for seven arsenic species. The limits of detection were 0.39, 0.60, 0.23, 1.85, 0.54, 0.48, and 0.84 ng/L for DMA, MMA, p-ASA, iAs, 4-OH, PAA, ROX, with the relative standard deviations (c = 10 ng/L, n = 7) of 3.6, 3.9, 5.5, 12.4, 6.1, 5.8, 5.0, respectively. The accuracy of the method was validated by analyzing BCR 627 Tuna fish. The application potential of the method was further evaluated by chicken muscle and liver samples. No target arsenic species were detected in these samples, and good recoveries (80.6-123%) were obtained for the spiked samples at low, medium, and high concentration levels.

Abstract
The separation properties of arsenic species was investigated using HPLC-ICP-MS with several commercially available fluorocarbon stationary phases and no ion-pair reagents in HPLC. One pentafluorophenyl column showed the highest potential for the separation of a larger number of arsenic species when using simple acid-based mobile phases. After modification of the operational parameters in HPLC, the speciation analysis of 13 representative arsenic species: arsenite, arsenate, methylarsonic acid, dimethylarsinic acid, trimethylarsine oxide, tetramethylarsonium, arsenobetaine, arsenocholine, thio-dimethylarsinic acid, oxo-arsenosugar-glycerol, oxo-arsenosugar-phosphate, oxo-arsenosugar-sulfonate, and oxo-arsenosugar-sulfate, was achieved by HPLC-ICP-MS with the column along with a mobile phase of 0.05% heptafluorobutyric acid-methanol (99:1, volume per volume).

Abstract
Considering the huge difference of biological toxicity, it is extremely significant to recognize the exact content of arsenic species in actual samples. In this paper, a novel pretreatment technique for the efficient extraction of arsenic species from herbal samples is developed by dual-frequency ultrasound-assisted enzymatic digestion (DUED). The preservation of arsenic original form, reduction of the actual analysis time, environmental friendliness and free-interference in subsequent detection make this method over the traditional method such as wet digestion, ashing and some solvent extraction technologies. The combination of DUED and atomic fluorescence spectrometry realize the speciation analysis of arsenic in traditional Chinese medicine. The optimizations of experimental parameters have been achieved, and the potential mechanism is discussed. The experimental data showed that cellulase is suitable for the digestion of herbal matrix than α-amylase and papain. Ultrasound can significantly increase the rate of enzymatic hydrolysis of biological molecules, especially under dual-frequency ultrasound irradiation. The highest relative extraction efficiency can be obtained by combining 40 kHz ultrasonic bath (UB) with 20 kHz ultrasonic probe (UP). Two certified reference materials [CRMs, GBW(E)090066 and GBW(E)090067] and four practical herbs were used to evaluate the accuracy and practicability of the method. Inorganic arsenic, including trivalent arsenic and pentavalent arsenic, was the main species in the four herbal samples.

Abstract
Arsenic (As) in rice grains is a serious food safety concern. Some coexisting engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) were shown to alter the accumulation and speciation of As in rice grains. However, investigation on the effects of copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs), a popular ingredient in pesticides, on the uptake and accumulation of As is rare. We explored the potentially different impact of CuO NPs and corresponding Cu(II) ions on the accumulation of two As species in rice seedlings in a hydroponic system. Rice seedlings were treated with a combinations of 1 mg/L of arsenite (As(III)) or arsenate (As(V)) and 100 mg/L of CuO NPs or Cu(II) for 6 days. Both forms of Cu significantly reduced the accumulation of total As in rice tissues, with Cu(II) exhibiting significantly greater effect than CuO NPs. As speciation in rice roots was markedly affected by both forms of Cu, and the impacts were Cu-form dependent. For example, the co-existence of As(V) with CuO NPs led to a 45% decrease of As(V) in rice roots, while the co-existence of As(V) with Cu(II) caused a 47% increase in As(V) in rice roots. As speciation in rice shoots was less affected by co-present Cu than in rice roots. Co-occurring As(III) or As(V) lowered Cu concentration in rice roots by 40% and 50% in treatments with CuO NPs, but did not affect Cu content in rice roots co-exposed to Cu(II). The study confirmed the reciprocal effect of co-occurring CuO NPs or Cu(II) and As in rice paddies and highlighted the unique "nano-effect" of CuO NPs. The results alsos showed that the initial oxidation state of As plays an important role in the interactions between As and Cu. The results shed light on the current debate on the safe applications of nano-enabled agrichemicals vs. conventional metal salts in agriculture.

Abstract
Arsenic contamination in marine environments is a serious issue because some arsenicals are very toxic, increasing the health risks associated with the consumption of marine products. This study describes the development of an improved rapid method for the quantification of arsenic species, including arsenite (AsIII), arsenate (AsV), arsenocholine (AsC), arsenobetaine (AsB), dimethylarsinic acid (DMA), and monomethyl arsonic acid (MMA), in seaweed, sediment, and seawater samples using high-performance liquid chromatography/inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (HPLC/ICP-MS). ICP-MS based on dynamic reaction cells was used to eliminate spectral interference. Ammonium nitrate- and phosphate-based eluents were used as the mobile phases for HPLC analysis, leading to shorter overall retention time (6 min) and improved peak separation. Arsenicals were extracted with a 1% HNO3 solution that required no clean-up process and exhibited reasonable sensitivity and peak resolution. The optimized method was verified by applying it to hijiki seaweed certified reference material (CRM, NMIJ 7405-a) and to spiked blank samples of sediment and seawater. The proposed method measured the concentration of AsV in the CRM as 9.6 ± 0.6 μg/kg dry weight (dw), which is close to the certified concentration (10.1 ± 0.5 μg/kg dw). The recovery of the six arsenicals was 87-113% for the sediment and 99-101% for the seawater. In the analysis of real samples, AsV was the most abundant arsenical in hijiki and gulfweed, whereas AsB was dominant in other seaweed species. The two inorganic arsenicals (AsIII and AsV) and AsV were the most dominant in the sediment and seawater samples, respectively.

Abstract
The accumulation of arsenic (As) in rice grains depends greatly on the redox chemistry in rice rhizosphere. Intentional or accidental introduction of strong oxidizing or reducing agents, such as metallic engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) into the plant-soil ecosystem, can change As speciation and plant uptake. However, investigation on the effects of ENPs on plant uptake of co-occurring redox sensitive heavy metals and their speciation in plant tissues is scarce. We investigated the mutual effects of two commonly encountered ENPs, cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) and zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs), and two inorganic species of As on their uptake and accumulation in rice seedlings in a hydroponic system. Rice seedlings were exposed to different combinations of 1 mg/L of As(III) or As(V) and 100 mg/L of CeO2 NPs and ZnO NPs for 6 days about 40 days after germination. ZnO NPs significantly reduced the accumulation of As(III) in rice roots by 88.1 and 96.7% and in rice shoots by 71.4 and 77.4% when the initial As was supplied as As(III) and As(V), respectively. ZnO NPs also reduced As(V) in rice roots by 68.3 and 52.3% when the As was provided as As(III) and As(V), respectively. However, the As(V) in rice shoots was unaffected by ZnO NPs regardless of the initial oxidation state of As. Neither the total As nor the individual species of As in rice tissues was significantly changed by CeO2 NPs. The co-presence of As(III) and As(V) increased Ce in rice shoots by 6.5 and 2.3 times but did not affect plant uptake of Zn. The results confirmed the active interactions between ENPs and coexisting inorganic As species, and the extent of their interactions depends on the properties of ENPs as well as the initial oxidation state of As.

Abstract
Qualitative and quantitative determination of total arsenic content and arsenic species in rice is very important because rice is one of the main sources of human arsenic intake. However, extraction and determination of arsenic species in rice has been very difficult due to severe matrix interference. An alternative analytical method was developed in this study to determine arsenic species in rice by using ion chromatography coupled to inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. Two internal standards were used. The first internal standard was injected before sample introduction to correct signal change with time. The second internal standard was spiked into the sample to reduce matrix interference. Using the developed method, recoveries of dimethylarsinic acid, monomethylarsonic acid, and inorganic arsenic compared to certified values (NIST SRM 1568b rice flour) were 116%, 107%, and 92%, respectively.

Abstract
A new method for arsenic detection by optical emission spectrometry (OES) is presented. Arsine (AsH3) is generated from liquid solutions by means of hydride generation (HG) and introduced into a capillary dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) where it is atomized and excited. A great challenge in OES is the reduction of the recorded background signal, because it negatively affects the limit of detection (LOD). In conventional DBD/OES methods, the signal intensity of the line of interest, in this case arsenic, is integrated over a long time scale. However, due to the pulsed character of the plasma, the plasma on-time is only a small fraction of the integration time. Therefore, a high amount of noise is added to the actual signal in each discharge cycle. To circumvent this, in the present study the emitted light from the DBD is collected by a fast gated iCCD camera, which is mounted on a modified monochromator. The experimental arrangement enables the recording of the emission signal of arsenic in the form of a monochromatic 2D-resolved picture. The temporal resolution of the iCCD camera in the nanosecond range provides the information at which point in time and how long arsenic is excited in the discharge. With use of this knowledge, it is possible to integrate only the arsenic emission by temporally isolating the signal from the background. With the presented method, the LOD for arsenic could be determined to 93 pg mL-1 with a calibration curve linear over 4 orders of magnitude. As a consequence, the developed experimental approach has a potential for both mechanistic studies of arsine atomization and excitation in DBD plasmas as well as routine applications, in which arsenic determination at ultratrace levels is required.

Abstract
High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) has several advantages over the conventional methods due to their operational simplicity. It is a vital tool to determine metal ions having same mass but different electronic configuration, to separate complex mixtures and to resolve ions that may be indistinguishable by mass spectrometry alone. Metal ions play vital role in many biological processes and involved in setting up of many diseases. Therefore, the development of simple methods for the detection and quantification of metals in real samples might serve as diagnostic tools for various diseases. This review article focuses on the recent main feature of this technique, i.e. speciation of metal ions and their applications to series of problem of metal ion chemistry in different environmental matrixes. Speciation of metals is of increasing interest and has a great importance because of bioavailability, environmental mobility, toxicity and potential risk of metals. With the capability of partitioning the complex species of different metal ions, HPLC is an efficient technique for this task. This review summarizes recent advances in the development of HPLC to the fundamental understanding of metal ion chemistry in the environment and discusses all the issues that still need a lot of consideration. It has been classified into different sections depending on the role of HPLC in separation used and metal speciation; furthermore, the underlying sample preconcentration techniques and detection systems involved for the determination of metal ions and their applications were discussed.

Abstract
This work proposes the use of high performance liquid chromatography coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HPLC-ICP-MS) for simultaneous speciation of arsenic and chromium in iron supplements used for the treatment of anemia. The sample preparation procedure recommended for the total determination of arsenic and chromium was established using acid digestion in a microwave assisted oven. For speciation analysis, however, the microwave-assisted extraction procedure involved the use of water as extraction solvent at 90°C for 30min. The chromatographic separation was performed using a mobile phase containing 1.0mM tetrabutylammonium hydroxide (TBAH), 0.7mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and 5% methanol at pH 7.2. Helium was used in the collision cell for elimination of the interferences. Under optimized conditions, the separation and detection of the As(III), As(V), Cr(III) and Cr(VI) species can be performed in 5min, permitting their quantification with the external calibration technique with standards prepared in the mobile phase. The limits of quantification obtained were 0.008, 0.010, 0.5 and 0.14µgg-1, for As(III), As(V), Cr(III) and Cr(VI), respectively. The accuracy of the method was evaluated and confirmed by addition/recovery tests. The recoveries obtained varied from 81% to 110%. The proposed method was applied to the speciation analysis of arsenic and chromium in commercially available iron supplements acquired in several cities in Brazil and Spain. The content of the species ranged from 0.01 to 1.3µgg-1 for arsenic, and from 0.4 to 61.2µgg-1 for chromium.

Abstract
Here we review recent developments in analytical proposals for the assessment of inorganic arsenic (iAs) content in food products. Interest in the determination of iAs in products for human consumption such as food commodities, wine, and seaweed among others is fueled by the wide recognition of its toxic effects on humans, even at low concentrations. Currently, the need for robust and reliable analytical methods is recognized by various international safety and health agencies, and by organizations in charge of establishing acceptable tolerance levels of iAs in food. This review summarizes the state of the art of analytical methods while highlighting tools for the assessment of quality assessment of the results, such as the production and evaluation of certified reference materials (CRMs) and the availability of specific proficiency testing (PT) programmes. Because the number of studies dedicated to the subject of this review has increased considerably over recent years, the sources consulted and cited here are limited to those from 2010 to the end of 2015.

Abstract
The concentrations of arsenic (As) and cadmium (Cd) in the tobacco leaves, ash and smoke of 10 kinds of cigarettes collected from different countries worldwide were determined by ICP-MS after microwave-assisted digestion. Total As and Cd concentrations in the tobacco leaves ranged from 0.20 to 0.63 and 1.8 to 9.9 mg kg(-1), respectively. By the speciation analysis of As in tobacco leaves and ash by HPLC-ICP-MS following acid extraction, arsenite [As(III)] and arsenate [As(V)] were determined and trace amounts of monomethylarsonic acid (MMAA), dimethylarsinic acid (DMAA), trimethylarsine oxide (TMAO), tetramethylarsonium (TeMA) and some unidentified As species were also found. Arsenic speciation for smoke absorbed in an aqueous solution was carried out. The sum of the As species in tobacco leaves, ash and smoke was in good agreement with the result of total As determination in each sample, and the recoveries of speciation were 100 ± 10%. The distributions and the behaviors of As species were clarified.
