Strategies of sample preparation for speciation analysis of inorganic antimony using hydride generation atomic spectrometry

Procedures involving solid phase extraction, liquid-liquid extraction, cloud point extraction and slurry sampling in methods developed for speciation analysis of antimony are summarized and presented including tables with analytical parameters. Most of the proposed methods were established using solid phase extraction because of the advantages of this separation technique. The literature review reports the period from 2003 to 2013.
