▎ 摘  要

A new method based on dispersive microsolid phase extraction using graphene oxide (GO) as a solid adsorbent and total reflection X-ray fluorescence (TXRF) spectrometry is proposed for trace determination of uranium. In the developed methodology, a suspension of GO was injected into uranium-spiked multielement solutions including rubidium; after filtration, the membrane filter with collected GO was placed in a small volume of internal standard acid solution and the eluent containing uranium was deposited onto a fluorine resin-coated slide glass, which is a disposable sample stage. Using GO was effective for removal of rubidium from the measurement solution to avoid interference between Rb K alpha peak and U L alpha peak. The high enrichment factor of 150 enables obtaining uranium detection limits of 0.042, 0.087, and 0.12 mu g L-1 for ionic strength of 0.01, 0.1, and 1 mol L-1, respectively. Such low detection limits were obtained by using a benchtop TXRF spectrometer with 5-min measurement. The proposed method is suitable for trace uranium determination in water, including high salinity samples.
