Analysis and Interpretation of Measurements for the Determination of Asbestos in Core Samples Collected at the Southdown Quarry in Sparta, New Jersey
نویسنده
چکیده
As part of a study of exposure to and risk from potential emissions of asbestos from the Southdown Quarry (now Cemex), a series of rock core segments representing each of multiple depths were acquired from historical drill core samples of Quarry material provided by the quarry. The samples were then analyzed for the determination of asbestos and related structures. Results are summarized below along with an evaluation of the quality (reliability) of these measurements. Results are then interpreted to evaluate asbestos-related exposures and the attendant risks potentially associated with work at the quarry.

Electrochemical behavior of Morphine at the surface of magnetic core shell manganese Ferrite nanoparticles modified screen printed electrode and its determination in real samples
In the present work, a new sensor for morphine (MO) measurement, based on modification of screen-printed carbon electrode (SPE) by using magnetic core shell manganese ferrite nanoparticles was reported. The electrochemical behaviour of MO was investigated in phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.0) by voltammetry. The electrochemical response of the modified electrode toward morphine was studied by m...

In 2007, research was carried out to determine the type and amount of asbestos fibers in a Croatian factory with a long history of making asbestos-containing products.Since the 1970s, asbestos fibres have been considered carcinogenic in humans i.e as a known cancer-causing agent. In the environment, asbestos fibres are inactive and naturally resist biodegradation. In time, fibres can only be gr...

Introduction: The most common complaint of heart patients is pain and chest discomfort. The delay in transmitting patients from the onset of symptoms to reaching a treatment center is one of the most important reasons for the deaths of these patients. There is a direct relationship between the early services provided by the pre-hospital emergency room with positive therapeutic outcomes and the ...

In the present study, a new chemically modified carbon paste electrode (CPE) is constructed for rapid, accurate, simple, highly sensitive, and selective determination of Mo (VI) using differential pulse voltammetry. The electrode was prepared using magnetic nickel zinc ferrite nanocomposite (Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4), as the modifier in CPE (Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4/CPE). Mo (VI) was determined after preconcentr...
