This review summarizes and discusses the research carried out on the determination of
antimony and its predominant chemical species in atmospheric aerosols. Environmental …

Bioaccumulation describes the ability for microbes or other biological cells to accumulate
heavy-metal species from the ambient environment. It has attracted extensive attention in the …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa immobilized multiwalled carbon nanotubes has been used as
biosorbent for the solid phase extraction of some heavy metal ions in environmental …

The progress of novel sorbents and their function in preconcentration techniques for
determination of trace elements is a topic of great importance. This review discusses …

A novel bulk optode was modified for ultra-trace detection of antimony. The optode was
synthesized by incorporating fabricated ionophore, 6-{4-(2, 4-di-hydroxyphenyl) diazenyl) …

A novel absorbent was prepared by dimercaptosuccinic acid chemically modifying
mesoporous titanium dioxide and was employed as the micro-column packing material for …

Some trace metals are highly toxic for the environment. There is therefore a need for reliable
methods for the determination of metals at trace levels. To this end, new sample …

This is the twenty-second annual review published in JAAS of the application of atomic
spectrometry to the chemical analysis of environmental samples. In the analysis of air, there …

Biosorption is a term that usually describes the removal of heavy metals from an aqueous
solution through their passive binding to a biomass. Bacteria, yeast, algae and fungi are …

Although more than 30 years has already passed since hydride generation (HG) via the
reaction with NaBH4 (THB) was combined with inductively coupled plasma (ICP) and …
