Inorganic arsenic in seaweed: a fast HPLC-ICP-MS method without coelution of arsenosugars.
Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry 2024 March 24
Seaweed is becoming increasingly popular in the Western diet as consumers opt for more sustainable food sources. However, seaweed is known to accumulate high levels of arsenic-which may be in the form of carcinogenic inorganic arsenic (iAs). Here we propose a fast method for the routine measurement of iAs in seaweed using HPLC-ICP-MS without coelution of arsenosugars that may complicate quantification. The developed method was optimised using design of experiments (DOE) and tested on a range of reference materials including TORT-3 (0.36 ± 0.03 mg kg-1 ), DORM-5 (0.02 ± 0.003 mg kg-1 ), and DOLT-5 (0.07 ± 0.007 mg kg-1 ). The use of nitric acid in the extraction solution allowed for the successful removal of interferences from arsenosugars by causing degradation to an unretained arsenosugar species, and a recovery of 99 ± 9% was obtained for iAs in Hijiki 7405-b when compared with the certified value. The method was found to be suitable for high-throughput analysis of iAs in a range of food and feed matrices including Asparagopsis taxiformis seaweed, grass silage, and insect proteins, and offers a cost-effective, fast, and robust option for routine analysis that requires minimal sample preparation. The method may be limited with regards to the quantification of dimethylarsenate (DMA) in seaweed, as the acidic extraction may lead to overestimation of this analyte by causing degradation of lipid species that are typically more abundant in seaweed than other marine matrices (i.e. arsenophospholipids). However, the concentrations of DMA quantified using this method may provide a better estimation with regard to exposure after ingestion and subsequent digestion of seaweed.
