Popis: | Two-level factor designs were used to optimize the supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) of methylmercury (MeHg) in marine samples, which were subsequently analysed by gas chromatography-electron capture detection (GC-ECD). Several variables potentially affect to extraction efficiency and kinetics. The factors studied were: CO2 flow-rate and density, extraction cell temperature, static extraction time, nozzle and trap temperature, amount of hydrochloric acid and contact time between the acid and the sample before to extraction. The extraction kinetics was studied in all experiments by splitting extracts at 2, 7, 17 and 37 min. The results suggest that only the extraction cell temperature is statistically significant. The optimized SFE procedure to extract MeHg was validated by means of three available reference materials having certified methylmercury content. |
