This is the 13th Atomic Spectrometry Update (ASU) to focus on advances in elemental
speciation and covers a period of approximately 12 months from December 2019. This ASU …

Chromium exerts serious damage to human beings and to aquatic life and is one of the most
common environmental contaminant and possess toxicity when present above threshold …

Chromium occurs naturally in different oxidation states. Amongst them, hexavalent
chromium is classified as both genotoxic and carcinogenic while trivalent chromium can be …

In this study, a new procedure of two-step direct immersion single-drop microextraction (TS-
DI-SDME) was firstly developed for the sequential separation and enrichment of Tl (III) and …

In this study, for the first time, a novel separation and preconcentration method of direct
immersion dual-drop microextraction (DIDDME) was proposed for the species of inorganic …

The study aims to clarify the current controversy related to conflicting reports on whether
presence of Cr (VI) in rice is possible or not. For this purpose, a method was employed for …

A new analytical procedure for the speciation of chromium (Cr) in plants by high
performance liquid chromatography inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HPLC …

Today, there is widespread concern about the potential health effects on populations from
consuming contaminated leafy plants and vegetables. In this study, heavy metal content is …

Wine and beer are beverages rich in polyphenols and other antioxidants that inhibit the
existence of Cr (VI). To verify this hypothesis, the content of Cr (VI) in wine and beer samples …

Non-chromatographic speciation methods generally involve speciation conversion, which
may cause sample contamination, analysis errors and tedious operations. In this work, a …
