INTRODUCTION

As part of a cooperative agreement between the Minnesota Department of

Natural Resources (MDNR) and the Minnesota Environmental Quality Board,

the MDNR analyzed fish tissues for body burdens of six metals as a functional

portion of the Regional Copper-Nickel Study. The primary assignment of this

study was the analysis of fish tissues from northeastern Minnesota. The

results of these analyses were to provide a regional characterization of

the body burdens of metals associated with copper-nickel mining and provide

a baseline for future comparison. In addition, tissues were to be archived

for future reference and analysis. The principal item of equipment, a

Perkin-Elmer Model 603 atomic absorption spectrophotometer equipped with a

graphite furance, was put on order in February, 1976, and delivered in

August, 1976. Plumbing, wiring, and general set-up were completed in

October, 1976, and preliminary analyses were run in November. The first set

of fi'sh tissue data was completed in December, and the total year's sample

assignment was completed in August, 1977. The following paper documents

these analyses.

QUALITY CONTROL

Since most of the data produced in this study depended on measurements near

the detection capabilities of the equipment, it was of primary importance

to exercise stringent quality control measures. The most probable vector

of contamination was the distilled water supply. Groundwater supplied to

the lab was initially treated in a water softener, distilled into a glass

holding tank and finally run through Barnstead cation removal and ultrapure

) deionizing columns, respectively. This system produced very pure water with

a specific conductance of less than 1.0 micro-ohms approaching ultrapure

conditions. Blank samples of this water were continually tested and were

never found to contain measurable levels of any metal under consideration.

Standard stock solutions were prepared according to specifications outlined

in the Perkin-Elmer manual, Analytical Methods for Atomic Absorption

Spectropho~ometry, using either the pure metal (Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd) or a salt

of the metal [Pb (NOg)2HgC12]. Stock solutions were stored in specially

washed 1 liter polyethylene bottles at a pH of 2 or lower (Robertson, 1968;

Struempler, 1973).

Final standards were prepared fresh each day by serially diluting stock

solutions to desired concentrations. Standards were compared with the

Environmental Protection Agency in lab quality control samples. The results

of these analyses can be found in Table 1.

All glass and plasticware were carefully washed in Micro Detergent, rinsed

in deionized water, soaked in 20 percent HN03 usually overnight, and

rinsed several times with deionized distilled water. All acid used in the

preparation of blanks, stock, and standard solutions was Ultrex brand

(Baker) nitric acid from certified lots. All glassware was borosillicate

and plasticware, polyethylene. All liquid transfers in the preparation of

standards, digestions, and sample injections were done with various sized

Eppendorff micro pipets with disposable polyethylene tips. The tips were

rinsed_ three to four times before use in order to avoid contamination

(Benjamin and Jenne, 1976), and each tip was used only once. Efforts to

wash and reuse pipet tips proved to be unsuccessful. Polyethylene

(whirl-pak, 18 oz.) bags and polystyrene weighing boats were used for

tissue storage and transfer. To check if there might be a metal leaching

problem in each of these materials, a sample of each was filled with

Page 3

10 percent HN0 3 and allowed to sit overnight. The leachate was then tested

for the six metals under consideration and found to be free of contamination.

Extreme care was taken to eliminate possible sources of contamination during

dissection. All contact surfaces were limited to teflon, polyethylene, or

stainless steel. Stainless steel has been found to be safe for use in

tissue dissection (Christian and Feldman, 1970). Latex gloves were worn by

lab personnel handling fish, allowing for efficient clean-up between

dissections. To minimize metal contamination, analysis was performed in a

room separated from the main laboratory and supplied with a filtered air

source. Glassware used in the preparation of standards was designated

solely for that purpose and separated from. General Lab Glassware stores.

In general, the EPA handbook for Analytical Quality Control in Water and

Wastewater Laboratories (1972) was used as a guideline for quality control

measures.

In order to check analytical procedure; two samples of fish tissue (muscle

and liver), prepared by this lab, were distributed to four other labs for

analysis. These labs included the FDA Laboratory, Minneapolis, EPA Water

Quality Lab, Duluth; Agronomy Services Lab, St. Paul; and the Research Lab,

Department of Soil Sciences, University of Minnesota, St. Paul. The results

of these analyses can be found in Table VII. Generally, there appears to

be good comparison between the various labs using atomic absorption technique.

TISSUE PREPARATION

Fish

Fish were received from field crews wrapped in polyethylene bags and packed

on ice and/or dry ice. Subsamples of tissue were dissected as soon as

Page 7: REGIONAL COPPER-NICKEL STUDY: FISH TISSUE ANALYSiS

Page 4

possible in order to assure the best estimate of live weight. Muscle tissue

was taken from the area above the lateral line directly posterior to the

head of the fish. This allowed for a uniform sampling from an area of

maximum tissue bulk which was generally free of bones. Uniform sample

location appears to be important since recent studies indicate regionalized

concentrations of metals even in muscle tissue (Stiefel, 1976). Ideally,

a minimum of 10 gms of tissue were dissected out for analysis, duplicate,

analysis, possible sample splits, and tissue archives. In smaller fish

where 10 gms of tissue was not available, the entire fillet from one side

'was taken. In most cases, all of the liver tissue was extracted. The

exceptions were large fish (northern pike) with livers over 30 gms where

only part of the liver was taken. Fish which were very small and a few

suckers., which appear to decompose more rapidly, had too little liver tissue

to work with and were deleted from the collection. Dissected tissue was

placed in pre-tared and labeled polystyrene weighing boats and weighed to

the nearest one one-thousandth of a gram. Tissue and weighing boat were

then placed in 18 ounce polyethylene whirl-pak sample bags and frozen in

preparation for freeze-drying. The subsamples of tissue were transferred

to the Meat Science Laboratory, University of Minnesota, St. Paul, for

freeze-drying. Weighing boats and tissue were placed intact into the mass

freeze-dryer, thus minimizing sample handling. When the drying process was

complete, the boats were placed in new whirl-pak bags for storage. In

preparation for digestion, approximately one half of the dried muscle tissue,

and usually all of the liver tissue, was homogenized in an all glass mortar

and pestel. The resulting powder was stored in appropriately-labeled

whirl-pak bags pending digestion. Through the entire procedure, chain of

custody forms were maintained to ensure proper disposition of samples'.

Mammals and Invertebrates

In addi';l to the primary assignment of fish tissue analysis, 16 small

mammal (Clethryonomys gapperi) and 38 invertebrate (composite and individual)

tissues were dissected and analyzed. These tissues were not freeze-dried,

but all other procedures applicable to fish tissues were applied to these

tissues. Mammal tissues included liver and muscle from the left hind leg.

Invertebrate tissues included clams foot muscle tissue, crayfish tail

muscle tissue, leech whole specimen, snail whole body free of shell, and

insect whole. Unfortunately, species designations were not afforded these

samples.

TISSUE DIGESTION

General Analysis

The assurance of a complete, homogenized digest became one of the most

critical points of the study. This was especially important in the case of

liver tissue which contains a higher percentage of oils which were difficult

to break down. A great deal of literature research and experimentation was

required to find a suitable technique. Anderson (1972) in a comparison of

wet and dry ashing technique recommends dry ashing over wet ashing of tissue.

In experiments conducted in this laboratory, both methods proved to be

unreproduceable. Dry ashing especially affected the more volatile metals,

while open wet ashing in HN0 3 failed to digest the samples fully. Both

methods required more steps than desired, thus increasing contamination

vectors. Fats and oils can be properly broken down in wet digestions by

using a combination of acids usually containing perchloric, sulfuric, and/or

nitric acids (Chernoff, 1975). However, these acid combinations can be

Page 9: REGIONAL COPPER-NICKEL STUDY: FISH TISSUE ANALYSiS

Page 6

dangerous and special precautions are required for perchloric acid fumes.

Since our lab is not equipped with a fume hood suitable for the use of

perchloric acid, this method was not considered. Base digestions can be

accomplished using a quaternary ammonium hydroxide such as the commercially

available Soluene-350 (Packard Instrument Company). Barlow and Khera (1975)

reported good solubilization of tissue using Soluene-350. However, pre­

liminary experimentation in this study revealed precipitation problems and

inability to keep spiked samples and standards in solution. Recently,

pressure digestions, especially those involving teflon-lined digestion bombs

and nitric acid, have proved to be a very reproduceable analytical method

(Krinitz and Holak, 1974; Davies and Adrian, 1975; Holak, et al., 1972;

Pearce, et al., 1976; Sunderman and Wacinski, 1974; Holak, 1974; and

Bernas, 1967). Preliminary experiments confirmed these findings, and Parr

~igestion Bombs (Model 4547, 25 ml) were selected as ~he most feasible

method of tissue digestion for this project. Not only did this method pro­

vide complete digestion, but it was rapid (2-3 hours), required small

volumes of expensive ultrex acid and it was applicable to small amounts

of tissue. In addition, it required few steps and was applicable to even

the most volatile metals, since it is a closed system. Recovery of spiked

samples digested in bombs proved to be well within limits of acceptability

(Table 2). Manufacturers' recommendations were followed in charging the

digestion bombs. Ideally, the conditions of digestion included 0.1 gm

dry tissue (~ 0.5 gm wet), and 3 ml ultrex HN0 3 at 1500 C for 2 hours. In

the case of mammal and some invertebrate samples, tissue was not freeze-dried,

and approximately 0.5 gm of wet tissue was used. Occasionally, less than

0.1 gm of dry tissue was available for analysis and conditions were changed

to accomodate the digestion.

Page 7

The digestion bomb produced a clear digestate which required no filtering.

The digestate was rinsed from the teflon cup into borosilicate glass

volumetric tubes and brought up to 10 ml with deionized distilled water.

The diluted digestate was then poured into specially washed and rinsed

(see Quality Control) 60 ml polyethylene screw cap bottles with a positive

seal (Nalgene 2114) and stored at 50 C pending analysis.

Mercury Analysis

Tissues for mercury analysis were not freeze-dried, since experimentation

indicates that some organic forms of mercury would be lost through vola­

tilization. A separate digestion applicable to the technique was us~d for

the mercury analysis. Tissue was removed from the frozen specimen in the

same region used for the analysis of other metals by taking a plug with a

stainless steel corer~ This plug was trimmed at either end with a stainless

steel scalpel to approximately .6 gms, weighed, and placed in a graduated

50 ml (25 X 200 mm) pyrex folin digestion tube (Pyrex 7900). Five mls of

concentrated 4:1 sulfuric-nitric acid were added to each tube which was

in turn placed in a hot water bath (BOOC) for 2 hours. The digestate was

then cooled in an ice bath and 10 ml of saturated (6 percent) potassium

permagenate was added to each tube and mixed on a vortex mixer. These were

allowed to set in the ice bath until the reaction subsided. Then 5 ml of

20 percent hydroxalamine hydrochloride was added to clear the remaining

permangenate and the tubes were again mixed on the vortex mixer. The

digestate was brought up to 50 ml with deionized distilled water pending

analysis. Just prior to analysis, 5 ml of 20 percent stanous chloride was

added to each tube and immediately covered with a rubber septum. These were

shaken several .times to release the elemental mercury and analyzed. This

procedure is a modification of the cold vapor technique devised by Hatch

and Ott, 196B and expanded on by numerous other experimentors.

ANALYSIS

Tissue digests were analyzed for Cu, Ni, Zn, Cd, Pb, and Hg by atomic

absorption spectropnotometry. The principal analytical instrument was a

Perkin-Elmer Model 603 atomic absorption spectrophotometer equipped with a

deuterium backround correction, HGA 2100 graphite furnace, PRS-IO printer­

sequencer and a 056 recorder. The specific conditions of analysis for each

metal. are listed in Table 3. Generally, Cu and Zn were found to be in

concentrations applicable to the use of flame spectrophotometry while

flameless technique was required for Ni, Cd, Pb. Hg was analyzed by using

the standard cold vapor technique. For this purpose, the. graphite furnace

assembly was modified so that mercury vapor could be swept through the

graphite tube via the internal gas flow. Windows were removed from the

furnace to enhance the .signal. All heat modes on the furnace control box

were turned to zero. Drying and charring times were turned to zero while

atomizing time was set at the maximum of 30 seconds. In this way, the

spectrophotometer could be run just as if the full furnace capabilities were

being employed. With the push of one button, proper gas flow, chart recordings,

integration, micro-processing, and printout-sequencing we':~ fully coordinated

greatly simplifying the analysis. Mercury vapor was swepth through the

furnace by installing two 18 gauge hypodermic needles in the internal gas

flow line from the furnace control box. These were inserted through the

rubber septum covering the digestion tubes, thus blowing the head space and

mercury vapor in the tubes into the spectrophotometer light path. Tissue

values were compared to blanks and a series of standards prepared in the

same manner. Generally, the conditions of analysis for all metals follow

Perkin-Elmer recommendations found in the handbook of analysis. Graphite

furnace injections were performed using Eppendorff 10·and 20 ~£ pipets.

Page 12: REGIONAL COPPER-NICKEL STUDY: FISH TISSUE ANALYSiS

Page 9

Standards for all metals were prepared fresh each day by seria.lly diluting

stock solutions. Standards and blanks were acidified to match samples.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS

Tissue digests frequently require the development of special technique in

order to separate the metal in question and the complex matrix. This

problem is compounded by the difficulties inherent to analysis at or near

detection capabilities. In the course of this study, these problems were

dealt with as they occurred. The solutions to these problems are basically

reflected in the final conditions of analysis in Table 3. However, an

expanded explanation of the measures employed to overcome certain diffi­

culties could greatly facilitate future analysis. Additionally, different

techniques might be employed from the outset to compensate for problems and

save valuable time not only in analysis, but in impromptu experimentation

and analysis correction.

Complete digestion is of primary importance in overcoming matrix inter­

ferences. If complex compounds can be disassociated, the likelihood of

interference is decreased. This is dealt with in the digestion section.

Bomb digestions have been shown to provide a complete hydrolysis of organic

constituents in rat liver (Sunderman and Wacinski, 1974). However, even

with this type of digestion, interfering compounds such as salts are

common problems.

The most troublesome metal in this study proved to be cadmium. There were

several reasons for this: 1) Cd was the least abundant of all metals

stUdied requiring work near detection levels; 2) Cd, outside of Hg, was the

most volatile of the metals studied; 3) Cd is one of the most sensitive

Page 13: REGIONAL COPPER-NICKEL STUDY: FISH TISSUE ANALYSiS

Page 10

metals in AA technique requiring standards of PPB accuracy andreproduceability;

and 4) the wavelength (228.8 nm) utilized in the analysis is also subject

to broadband absorption by sodium chloride (Pulido, et al., 1966; Schlesinger

and Potter, 1974).' These problems were overcome by experimenting with

charring times and temperatures. The working parameters finally utilized

managed to properly separate the cadmium from the matrix, but the time of

analysis was greatly lengthened. The use of the deuterium backround

corrector was imperative since backround absorption was evident. It is

recommended that future Cd analysis include the addition of P0 4, S04' or

ammonium salts, such as (NH4)2S04' to decrease the volatility of Cd so that

charring temperatures can be increased (Giesy and Wiener, 1977). This would

reduce the time required for analysis and facilitate Cd-matrix separation.

These matrix modifiers should be added to all standards and blanks for

proper comparisons.

Speci~l care should be taken in the analysis of nickel, since a narrow band

pass is required to eliminate a nearby nonabsorbing wavelength. Experience

has shown that any vibration could alter the monochrometer enough to

reduce sensitivity.

Previous mention has been made concerning pipet tips as possible vectors of

contamination. Another point of concern is variability in pipet delivery

and distribution of sample drops in the graphite tube. To eliminate pipet

delivery variation, each sample injection was followed by a rinse injection

of blank solution. This procedure helps to improve previously unexplained

variations in standard replications.

Finally, great care should be taken to ensure a laboratory air supply which

is free of water and oil. The system employed in this study included an

Page 14: REGIONAL COPPER-NICKEL STUDY: FISH TISSUE ANALYSiS

Page 11

,

oil-free compressor. A delteck oil filter, two cartridge air dryers, and

a pur-gas heatless air dryer. This system provided a more than adequate

clean air supply.

PRESENTATION OF RESULTS

The results of the tissue analysis are reported as ppm (mg/Kg) metal for

dry and wet weight. For reader convenience and reference, live fish length

and weight are reported to the left of the same table (Table 4). Results

for mammal and invertebrate samples are reported in a similar fashion in

Tables 5 and 6.

TISSUE ARCHIVE

Due to lack of funding, samples collected during the 1977 field season were

only processed, freeze-dried, and archived for future analysis. These

tiss~es, in addition to the remaining tissue from the 1976 collection, will

be stored at the Chemistry Laboratory, Carlos Avery Game Farm, Forest Lake.

The archive will be maintained with records until such time that it is

deemed feasible to analyze or destroy them. In case any question concerning

the analysis should arise, these records will remain open for review.
