Objective To establish a method for the determination of 7 metal elements in drinking water by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), and monitor the status of water quality in Wuhan. Methods Water samples were detected by ICP-MS after filtration and acidification (2% HNO3). The mass spectrum interference was eliminated by the internal standards. Results The method showed good linearities and the correlation coefficients were all greater than 0.9998. The detection limits were obtained between 0.0006~0.015 μg/L, and the limits of quantification were between 0.0020~0.050 μg/L. The recovery rates were between 84.3%~104.5%, with the relative standard deviations (RSD) between 0.72%~6.89%. The results of laboratory comparison were satisfactory. Conclusion The established method is simple, rapid, and accurate, which is applicable to the determination of metal elements in water.
