Lead concentrations of 59 different types of vinegars (15-307mugl(-1) in balsamic vinegars and 36-50mugl(-1) in wine vinegars) were determined using both inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS). Although the precision of direct analyses, following simple aqueous dilutions, with either instrumental method was poor; that precision, following nitric acid and/or hydrogen peroxide digestions, markedly improved with either instrument and the values obtained with the two instruments were in good agreement. The efficacy of different digestions, including (1) nitric acid using a heating block, with or without addition of hydrogen peroxide and (2) mixtures of nitric acid and hydrogen peroxide using ultraviolet (UV) photolysis, were then assessed.

A method was developed for the speciation analysis of ionic organolead compounds in wine. The analytes were extracted as diethyldithiocarbamate complexes into hexane and propylated with a Grignard reagent. The derivatized extract was analyzed by capillary gas chromatography/microwave-induced-plasma atomic emission spectrometry.
