A novel hyphenated technique, on-line coupling of capillary electrophoresis (CE) to atomic fluorescence spectrometry (AFS), was developed for speciation analysis of four environmentally significant and toxic forms of arsenic: arsenite, arsenate, monomethylarsenic acid, and dimethylarsenic acid. Baseline separation of the four arsenic species was achieved by capillary electrophoresis in a 50 cm x 100 microm i.d. fused-silica capillary at 20 kV and using a 20 mmol L(-1) phosphate buffer (pH 6.5). A hydride generation (HG) technique was employed to convert the arsenic species from the CE effluent into their respective hydrides. The CE-AFS interface was constructed on the basis of a cross design for introducing a sheath flow around the CE capillary and a Pt electrode, which provided an electrical connection for stable electrophoretic separations and allowed on-line volatile hydride formation. A laboratory-made gas-liquid separator was used to isolate the generated volatile species from the reaction mixture solution, and an argon flow was used to transport the volatile hydrides into the atomizer of AFS for on-line detection. The precision (RSD, n = 7) ranged from 2.1 to 3.1% for migration time, from 2.8 to 4.2% for peak area response, and from 2.0 to 4.1% for peak height response for the arsenic species at the 1 mg L(-1) (as As) level. The detection limits were in the range of 9-18 microg L(-1) (as As). The recoveries of the four arsenic species in locally collected water samples and urine sample ranged from 91 to 115%. The developed technique was successfully applied to the speciation of the water-methanol extractable arsenic in a sediment sample.
