This study develops a simple and rapid method
for Cd and Pb determination in seafood samples
by GFAAS by using 8-hydroxyquinoline modified
octadecyl silica membrane disc as solid adsorbent
for solid phase extraction to preconcentrate the metals.
The developed method was optimized in terms
of pH, 8-hydroxyquinoline quantity, elution type
and volume to obtain its analytical performance.
The optimized method was then applied to seafood
samples.
