An isotope dilution gas chromatography/mass spectrometry method using lithium bis(trifluoroethyl)dithiocarbamate as a chelating agent is described for the determination of chromium in urine. A wet digestion procedure with HNO3-H2O2 is used for oxidizing the organic matter associated with urine samples. The isotope ratios are measured by selected ion monitoring in a general-purpose mass spectrometer using a 10-m fused silica capillary column. Memory effect, in sequential analyses of samples with different isotope ratios, was evaluated by preparing a series of synthetic mixtures and was found to be negligible. The accuracy of the method was verified by quantitation of chromium in the NIST freeze-dried urine reference material, SRM-2670, with a recommended chromium concentration of 13 micrograms/L in the normal level and certified chromium concentration of 85 +/- 6 micrograms/L in the elevated level.
