In this study, Cd(II) ions were extracted by syringe filter membrane-micro solid phase extraction procedure(SFM-μ-SPE). Firstly, 20 mg of the CNTs@DHSP as solid-phase added to 20 mL of water sample in a syringe, then dispersed for 3 min after adjusting pH up to 7 and pass through SFM very slowly. After extraction, the Cd(II) ions were back-extracted from SFM/CNTs@DHSP by 1.0 mL of eluent in acidic pH. Finally, the cadmium concentration was measured by AT-FAAS. Under the optimal conditions, the linear range (2–90 µg L−1), LOD (0.75 µg L−1) and enrichment factor (19.6) were obtained (RSD<1.5%). The adsorption capacity of Cd(II) with the CNTs@DHSP was obtained about 152.6 mg g-1. The method was validated by certified reference materials (SRM, NIST) and ET-AAS in water samples.  ER -
