Objective To establish a method for determination the content and migration of metal elements (lead, arsenic, aluminum) in paper straws by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and inductively coupled plasma optical spectrometry (ICP-OES), and analyze the changes in the content and migration of 3 kinds of elements. Methods Microwave digestion and immersion in 4% acetic acid for 2 hours were used as pre-treatment conditions. The instrument was analyzed according to the selected working conditions, and a standard working curve was drawn. Three elements were subjected to spiked recovery experiments, and the recovery rate and precision were calculated. Then, the content and migration amount of 3 kinds of elements were detected in 45 samples. Results The linear range of lead and arsenic elements in the ICP-MS method was 5-50 μg/L, with correlation coefficients greater than 0.999 and limits of detection of 0.005 and 0.002 mg/kg. The spiked recovery rates were 96.1% and 104.2%, with relative standard deviations of 1.5% and 3.6%. The linear range of aluminum element in ICP-OES method was 0.5-4.0 mg/L, with a correlation coefficient greater than 0.999 and the limits of detection of 0.3 mg/kg. The spiked recovery rate was 94.0%, with a relative standard deviation of 0.2%. The aluminum content and migration amount in paper straws were relatively high, especially the aluminum content, with an average content of 148.00 mg/kg and a maximum content of 1005.00 mg/kg. The 40% of the straws had a content exceeding 100.00 mg/kg. Conclusion Based on the characteristics of lead, arsenic, and aluminum content in paper straws, this study establishes an analytical method for testing aluminum, lead, and arsenic in paper straws. Based on this method, the content and migration patterns of lead, arsenic and aluminum elements in actual use are explored, providing technical support for a deeper understanding of the safety of paper straws.
