Acid Leaching MethodsBioaccessibility Bioavailability Exposure
Preparation Types
Digestions ….• Total Impurities• Strong acids
HNO3, HCl, HF, H2SO4, HClO4 , H3PO4
• Other Oxiders H2O2
• Heating Open Vessel vs. Microwave assistedTemps from 95 to 260 deg. C
Extractions….• Bioavailable Impurities• Weaker acids
HNO3, HCl
• Enzymes Pepsin
• Heating Body Temp. 37 deg. C
• Agitation Shaker, Rotator
Toxicity(Oral Exposure)
Total Impurities – Present in any Form
Bioaccessible - Soluble in Digestive Juices
Bioavailable - Reaches Systemic Circulation

Physical and Chemical Properties Element and Material of interest
For easily solubilized compounds in simple matrices: Pb(NO3)2 in water Total Pb = Bioaccessible Pb
For hard to solubilized compounds in complex matrices: Aluminum in clay Total Al ≥ Bioaccessible Al
Bioaccessibility(Digestive Solubility)
Extraction of trace elements from natural sourced materials can be very dependent on extraction variables – especially strength and type of acid
• minerals (clays and talcs) • mineral derivatives (titanium compounds)
Elemental impurities may be bound within the structure of the compound, in complexes adhered to their surface or as cations that balance negative charges.
Gastric Fluid Analogues have been used since the 1960s to study the bioaccessibility of nutritional elements, particularly iron……
• 0.07 – 1.0 N HCl• Pepsin (digestive protease)
• NaCl, KCl, phosphate buffers, NaHCO3, glycine
• pH 1.4 – 2.8 (can be stepped to/from pH 5 - 6)
• Temperature – 37deg. C • Time – 1 to 6 hours
Simulated Gastric Fluid
EN 71-3 European Standard for Safety of Toys• Measures 17 Elements• Single Step: 1 N HCl at 37 deg. C for 2 hours
ASTM D5517 Extractability from Art Materials• Measures 20 Elements• Single step 0.07 N HCl at 37 deg. C for 1 hour / sit 1 hour• 45 micron filtration post extraction
EPA 9200.2-86 InVitro Bioaccessible Pb in Soil• Validated for Pb but has been used for others• 0.4 M glycine adjusted to pH 1.5 with HCl• Rotation end over end in large water bath• Bioavailability expressed as fraction

Complicating Issues
Hydrofluoric Acid Usage• Essential for dissolution of siliceous materials
- Minerals/Ores/Soils/Vegetables/Plants• Creates insoluble fluorides (CaF2 MgF2)
Unfiltered Particles• Picked up by autosampler
- Falsely Elevates Results
Internal Standards • Several common I.S. compounds found in minerals
- Indium Germanium Tellurium - Falsely Elevated I.S. = Falsely Lower Result
