چکیده

Nanopartículas de Ag suportadas em TiO2 (Ag-TiO2) foram usadas como catalisador na geração de vapor frio induzida por radiação UV com ácido fórmico, acoplado à absorção atômica para determinação do mercúrio total em amostras analíticas. A atividade redutora de Ag-TiO2 foi comparada com dois catalisadores semicondutores: TiO2 não modificado e ZnO. O efeito do tipo de catalisador, sua concentração na amostra analisada, pH da amostra, concentração do ácido fórmico e tempo de irradiação ultravioleta foi investigado. Na presença de ácido fórmico, Ag-TiO2 foi o mais eficiente na redução de mercúrio. Nas condições experimentais otimizadas, a recuperação de mercúrio em quatro materiais de referência contendo 0,20-1,99 μg g Hg foi de 95-99% dos valores certificados. O desvio padrão relativo para amostras foi igual ou melhor do que 11%. A análise de materiais de referência certificados (correspondentes a amostras ambientais e biológicas) mostrou a potencialidade do método Ag-TiO2-UV-CVGAAS na determinação de mercúrio em amostras analíticas no nível de ultra-traço.

Effects of mercury on embryonic development and larval growth of the sea urchin Echinometra mathaei from the Persian Gulf

This study investigated the effects of increasing mercury (Hg) concentration on early developmental stages of sea urchin, Echinomethra mathaei, as a bioindicator. The toxicity test was carried out after the gamete released induction and fertilization in six concentrations of mercury within the range of 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 and 128 µg/L. Embryos samples were incubated for 30 h in control and test so...
