A simple, robust and reliable analytical procedure for the determination of 28 selected elements, namely Al, As, Ba, Be, Bi, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Ng, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Ni, Pb, Sc, Si, Se, Sn, Sm, Sr, TI, V, and Zn in textile materials by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) after microwave digestion of samples was optimized and validated in this work. The total amount of elements present in textile samples was determined after microwave digestion of materials in 7 mol/L nitric acid within the optimal working program: 5 min at 150 degrees C (power 250W), 15 min 180 degrees C (300W) and 20 min at the maximum temperature of 200 degrees C (350W). For the quality control reasons, which were ascertained by analysis of the certified cotton trace elements reference material IAEA-V9, the ICP-OES method was optimized through several parameters: by comparing Meinhard and Gemcone Low Flow nebulizers efficiency, ranging nebulizer gas flows from 0.6 to 1.0 L/min, ranging sample flows from 0.8 to 1.2 mL/min, testing RF power from 1200 to 1400W, detecting data acquisition time (read time) from 0 to 527s, ranging washing (delay) time from 0 to 408s, as well as by checking the occurring interferences for the optimal line selection. Validation included determination of linearity, selectivity, accuracy, reproducibility, precision and limits of detection calculated for all 28 selected elements of interest. The developed analytical procedure was successfully applied on textile fibers (cotton, flax and hemp) as well as on standard knitted textile sample materials (cotton and wool).
