AB  - Rapid, sensitive and simultaneous determination of trace multi-elements in 
      various plant food samples such as grain, oilseed, vegetable and tea is always a 
      challenge thus far. In this work, a rapid determination method for Se, Cd, As and 
      Pb in food samples by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) using 
      slurry sampling electrothermal vaporization (SS-ETV) was developed. To improve 
      the analytical sensitivity and precision as well as eliminate the memory effect, 
      a gas turbulator line and signal delay device (SDD) were for the first time 
      designed for the graphite furnace (GF) ETV coupled with ICP-MS. The signal 
      acquisition parameters of ICP-MS, ashing and vaporization conditions, and the 
      flow rates of carrier gas and gas turbulator were investigated for Se, Cd, As and 
      Pb in food samples. Under the optimized conditions, the limits of determination 
      (LODs) for Se, Cd, As and Pb were 0.5 ng g(-1), 0.3 ng g(-1), 0.3 ng g(-1) and 
      0.6 ng g(-1), respectively; the limits of quantification (LOQs) for Se, Cd, As 
      and Pb were 1.7 ng g(-1), 1.0 ng g(-1), 1.0 ng g(-1) and 1.9 ng g(-1), 
      respectively; linearity (R(2)) in the range of 1 to 4,000 ng g(-1) was >0.999 
      using the standard addition method. This method was used to analyze 5 CRMs 
      including rice, tea and soybeans, and the concentrations detected by this method 
      were within the range of the certified values. The recoveries of Se, Cd, As and 
      Pb in plant food matrices including grain, oilseed, celery, spinach, carrot and 
      tea samples were 86-118% compared to the microwave digestion ICP-MS method; and 
      the relative standard deviations (RSDs) were 1.2-8.9% for real food sample 
      analysis, proving a good precision and accuracy for the simultaneous 
      determination of multi-elements. The analysis time was less than 3 min, slurry 
      preparation time < 5 min without sample digestion process. The proposed direct 
      slurry sampling ICP-MS method is thus suitable for rapid and sensitive 
      determination of Se, Cd, As and Pb in food samples with advantages such as 
      simplicity, green and safety, as well as with a promising application potential 
      in detecting more elements to protect food safety and human health.
