Abstrakt		A procedure was developed for the preconcentration and determination of aluminium and copper in dialysis concentrates at the ng cm-3 level. The preconcentration was achieved on microcolumns filled with Chelex-100 resin adjusted to a pH of 4.0. Five repetitive cycles of the sample through the column ensured a sufficient contact time for quantitative retention of aluminium and copper ions. The retained ions were eluted with HNO3 (0.5 mol dm-3). Aluminium and copper were determined in the eluate by Zeeman ETAAS using the standard addition technique. The procedure was performed under clean room conditions (class 10,000). The reliability of the results was evaluated by recovery tests, using dialysis concentrates spiked with aluminium and copper. The recoveries obtained ranged from 86 to 106% for aluminium and from 92 to 97% for copper. Using the recommended procedure, the LOD of aluminium and copper in dialysis concentrates (preconcentration factor 2) was found to be 0.5 ng cm-3 and 0.2 ng cm-3, respectively.
