Abstract

This study presents a novel separation, preconcentration and determination of basic fuchsin (BF) in an aqueous solution by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-bounded iron oxide nanoparticles (S-IONPs). It is shown that the novel magnetic nano-adsorbent is quite efficient for the adsorption and desorption of BF at 25 °C. Different parameters such as pH, temperature, ionic strength and composition of desorbent solvent were optimized. The effect of some co-existing ions on the determination was investigated. The nanoparticles were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and the sizes of S-IONPs were in the range of 20–100 nm. The method showed good linearity for the determination of BF in the range of 10–300 ng mL−1 with a regression coefficient of 0.9989. The limit of detection (LOD) (signal-to-noise ratio of 3:1) was 0.0073 μg L−1 and the relative standard deviation (RSD) for 0.03 μg mL−1 and 0.2 μg mL−1 of BF were 4.53% and 4.73%, respectively. The BF was determined successfully in spiked samples of Karoon River water.
