We describe and evaluate a method for determining nickel in plasma and urine by atomic absorption spectrometry. Proteins are precipitated with trichloroacetic acid and sulfuric acid; ammonium pyrrolidinedithlocarbamate is used as the chelating agent for nickel, and methyl isobutyl ketone as extraction solvent. The results were compared with results obtained by the acid-digestion technique for removing proteins and other organic substances. Analyses for both plasma and urine were better by the present procedure. The mean and standard deviation for nickel in plasma from 15 healthy individuals was 2.13 +/- 0.58 microgram/liter by this method. For nickel in urine from 15 healthy men the mean and standard deviation was 4.45 +/- 1.9 microgram/liter. The coefficient of variation for plasma was 11.9%, and for urine 12.2% in 10 analyses of the same plasma and urine with the protein-precipitation procedure, as compared with 26.0 and 38.2%, respectively, by the acid-digestion technique.
