Organic arsenic compounds added to chicken and poultry feedstocks represent significant environmental and ecological risks.
National and international health bodies, including the United States Environmental Protective Agency and the US Food and Drug Administration, have recently imposed stringent concentration limits for arsenic species in drinking water and food.
The variety of sample matrices used complicates arsenic species analysis. To address these issues, an HPLC-ICPMS approach has been devised.
Arsenic compounds are resolved using ion exchange chromatography on a Hamilton PRP-X100 column, a 55 % cross-linked polystyrene-divinylbenzene copolymer functionalized with a quaternary ammonium anion exchanger group. The detection method is inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry.
