Introduction
Slight lead content in animal and human organs necessitates its selection and concentration before subsequent determination.The intense way of restoring the amino acids necessary for proper formation and tissue growth is possible only with consumption of animal protein.Animal protein sources in Azerbaijan are beef, poultry and lamb.Messy dumping on land and in water of bodies, illegal extraction of ore and painting houses, the use of tetra ethyl lead as an anti-knock additive to improve asoline quality in Azerbaijan and in many other developing countries leads to lead poisoning animals.Cattle and other ruminants graze freely in these conditions, and drink water from ponds, streams, rivers and other possible sources of pollution, which are hazardous to human and animal health.These metals bio-accumulate in the organs and other tissues of these animals.When these animals are killed for human consumption, lead can bio-accumulate in human tissues and organs.This explains why the lead level in animal products continues to be the center of attention of health workers [1]- [5].Lead can negatively affect many organs and life-support systems, causing high blood pressure, anemia, kidney damage, hearing loss and mental retardation [6].This research was conducted to determine the level of lead residue in the cattle's liver in Baku.In case of determination of small amounts of metals in various sites, preconcentration is often necessary.These include methods of using of sorptive chelate adsorbents.Their high selectivity allows you to retrieve hard metals from solutions of complex composition [7].Determination of trace amounts of lead in the environment is possible only after pre-concentration.To increase the selectivity and effectiveness of lead concentration azo containing sulfur, sorbents are often used and have high practical interest in determining its complex objects in [8].Chelating properties of selective sorbents caused by the presence of complexing groups depend on the experimental conditions of pH, saline background and the presence of the masking agents.Previously, it was shown that chelate sorbent-copolymer of maleic anhydride with styrene, modified with ternary amines in the presence of formaldehyde, effectively absorbed acidic and alkaline environment ions of Cu, Fe, Cd, U, Zn and other elements [9].
The main objective in the present study is to investigate the sorption and desorption of Pb(II) obtained by the sorbent and to determine the optimal concentration condition.
The sorption capacity of sorbent to the amount of lead is −497 mg/g (2.40 mmol/g).This indicator is not inferior in such well-known complexing sorbents as PSTM-3T (CE = 160 mg/g), fibrous sorbents with nitrogen-containing functional groups, the Academy of Sciences 1 (1.33 mmol/g) AL-1 (0.43 mmol/g), KH-1 (0.21 mmol/g), AN-3 (0.035 mmol/g) [6]- [8].Potentiometric method defined ionization constants of ionic groups in a part of the sorbent.The methodology was used for the sorption-photometric determination of lead in the liver of cattle.

Reagents and Apparatus
All the chemicals and reagents used in this work are of analytical grade and standart solution of lead(II) ion was prepared by dissolving Pb(CH 3 COO) 2 in water.Lead(2+) solution with concentration 1.0 × 10 −2 mg −1 •l −1 is used in this work.The calculated amount of KCl was introduced to maintain a constant ionic strength.Caustic potassium hydroxide used for potentiometric titration of solutions was prepared by dissolving KOH (c.p.) in distilled water, the concentration of solution was determined by titration with standard solution of HCl.The necessary pH values were created by using fiksanal HCl (pH 1 -2) and ammonium acetate buffer solution (pH 3 -11).pH of solutions were measured by ionomer I-130 with glass electrode.Optical density of solutions were measured by using of photocolorimeter KFK-2 (l = 1 sm).For photometric determination of lead, we used xylene orange as a reagent.Concentration of Pb(II) was calculated by using of calibration curve and the results were worked up by math statistic methods [10].The investigation of sorption was made in static conditions.

The Method of Preparation of Chelating Polymer
In this work, we applied a new polymer chelateforming sorbent with fragments of 4-amino-2-thiouracil. Radical copolymerization of maleic anhydride with styrene was carried out by the technique [11] [12].Counted quantity of formalin and 4-amino-2-thiourasil is added to the received copolymer.The sorbents was synthesized by adding suitable amine and formaldehyde onto gotten copolymer.Reaction was performed on sand bath with continuously mixing.The reaction was performed in water medium.Therefore, copolymer's anhydride groups were hydrolyzed.Reaction lasts 30 -40 min.under 333.15 -343.15K of temperature for removal of remaining parts of reaction product sorbent has been rinsed several times with distilled water.Then constant mass was dried in vacuum desiccators at 323 K and skipped through sieve with 0.14 mm of pore diameter.The synthesis reactions are shown below.
The resulting product was investigated by IR-spectroscopy.

Absorption Spectra
It is known that sorption properties of the sorbent depend on the dissociation constants of ionogenic groups contained in their composition.To study the acid-base properties of produced sorbent by a known method the complete static sorption capacitance was studied ( K CSSC + = 7.8 mmol/g) and then verified by potentiometric titration [13].Based on the results neutralization degree (α) of individual acidic groups and the magnitude of lgα/1-α were calculated as a function of pH for the construction of the potentiometric curve, which is characterized by two inflection points.From these data, using the modified equation Ganderson-Gasselbakh dissociation constants of alkaline groups 2 NH + and detachment of protons from non-reactive carboxyl groups [14]

Effect of pH
The effect of pH on the preconcentration of Pb(II) ions in static conditions, on chelating sorbents is in the pH range of 1 -8.The influence of pH is shown in Figure 1.As can be seen, quantitative recovery of metal ions is achieved in the pH range of 4 -6.
For small values (pH 1 -4) of the liquid phase low degree of recovery may be associated with protonation of functional groups in the sorbent phase and with a low swelling degree of the polymer.For these values of pH Pb(II) ions are in the form of Pb 2+ [16].With increasing of pH of the liquid phase (pH 5 -6) the swelling degree of polymer sorbents increases [16].

Effect of Initial Concentration of Pb 2+ Ions on Sorbent's Sorption Capacity
The effect of initial Pb(II) ions concentration on adsorption was studied at the range of 0.2 × 10 −3 mol•l −1 to 8.0 × 10 −3 mol•l −1 .The percentage removal of Pb 2+ ions increased with increasing of Pb 2+ concentration.Investigation has shown that the maximum adsorption is observed when the metal ion concentration is 8.0 × 10 −3 mol•l −1 .Results are illustrated on the diagram and table below (Table 1, Figure 2).Table 1 shows that removal percentage of Pb(II) sorption reaches its maximal value when the metal ion concentration is 2.0 × 10 −3 mol•l −1 .As we see at the range of concentration 0.2 × 10 −3 -1.0 × 10 −3 mol•l −1 full sorption of Pb(II) ions by investigated sorbent is observed.Therefore to determine sorption capacity volume of metal ion solution should be increased.

Effect of Eluent
Various acids-HClO 4 , H 2 SO 4 , HCl, HNO 3 were tested to select a suitable eluent.HClO 4 shows the greatest influence on the desorption degree of lead ion (ІІ).Various concentrations of 0.2 -1.5 M HCl were tested to select a suitable tested eluent (Table 2).
In further experiments, 5 ml of 0.5 M HCl was used as eluent.The adsorbent does not lose its sorption properties after regeneration and can be reused.
The optimal conditions of sorption (Table 3) were determined while studying sorption equilibrium of obtained new chelating sorbent with Pb 2+ ions (exploring the influence of pH of solutions, ionic strength, Pb 2+ ion concentration on the sorption, the dependence on time).
It may be concerned with the arrangement and stability of remaining chelat cycles.Adsorption and desorption processes has been taken place in static condition.

Using Method to Object
Total 100 grams fresh samples of liver were collected from killed cattle's in Baku.Samples were packed in sterile plastic bags, labeled with a marker, and stored frozen in freezer.Then frozen samples were transported to the research laboratory of the Baku State University for further processing and analysis.For the analysis took three liver samples, respectively 23.9387 g (I sample) 36.8022g (ІІ sample), 28.1416 g (III sample) of mass.To the first and the second samples 1 g.Pb(CH 3 COO) 2 was added.Samples were dissolved in a graphite crucible under heating in 55 ml of HNO 3 (conc.).Within an hour, the liver was dissolved in acid.The solution was then calcined in the muffle furnace.Obtained weight of the ashes of the first sample is 4.6511, 5.1930-second sample, a third sample −5.5223 g.The resulting ash is dissolved in aqua regia.After the resulting mixture was dissolved in distilled water, the insoluble material was separated by filtration.The resulting solution was transferred into a flask of 100 ml, pH = 6 adjusted to the desired value, added to the mark with distilled water and mixed.In the prepared liver, lead (Pb) residue was determined pre-concentration with chelating polymer.Then photometric determination of lead we used xylene orange as a reagent [17].Data were presented on Table 4.
The concentration of lead in the liver samples ranged to 1.087 mg/kg with mean and standard deviation of 0.0067 mg/kg.
[15].Ionization constants were determined by potentiometric titration of the sorbent.( We can see that the sorbent contains 2 different ionogenic groups.So the ionization of the sorbent goes on in 2
