Kinetic mixture effects in diffusion gradients in thin films (DGT).

چکیده
The penetration of complexes into the resin domain of the DGT devices has a large influence on the lability degree of these complexes, since the reaction layer (the layer where there is net dissociation) extends from the diffusive gel into the resin domain. Numerical simulation shows that, typically, the contribution to the metal accumulation from dissociation of complexes inside the resin domain is dominant. As a consequence, in excess of ligand, the influence of the ligand concentration on the lability degree is much reduced, in comparison with this effect in the voltammetric sensors. The presence of a mixture of ligands leads to parallel complexes that mutually influence their lability degrees. In general, the interaction between the complexes has an impact on the lability degree of each one, but the total metal accumulation is less sensitive due to cancellation (mutually opposite effects of a couple of complexes). This result paves the way to predict the metal accumulation from the lability degree available for each complex in a single ligand system. Maximum discrepancies of 10% have been found in these predictions which can still be reduced if thicker resin gels are used.

In situ speciation measurements . Using diffusive gradients in thin films ( DGT ) to determine inorganically and organically complexed metals *
The possibilities of using diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) and anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV) to perform speciation measurements in natural waters are discussed. Both techniques measure labile species, but different approaches have been used to discriminate organic (Corg) and inorganic (Cinorg) metal complexes. In DGT, metals are bound to a resin after passing through a hydrogel tha...
متن کاملInfluence of the settling of the resin beads on diffusion gradients in thin films measurements.
Binding resin beads used in DGT (diffusion gradients in thin films) tend to settle to one side of the resin during casting. This phenomenon might be relevant for metal accumulation when partially labile complexes dominate the metal speciation, especially after recognizing the important role played by complex dissociation in the resin domain. The influence of the inhomogeneity of the binding age...
متن کاملActivated charcoal based diffusive gradients in thin films for in situ monitoring of bisphenols in waters.
Widespread use of bisphenols (BPs) in our daily life results in their elevated concentrations in waters and the need to study their environmental impact, which demands reliable and robust measurement techniques. Diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) is an in situ passive sampling approach which provides time-integrated data. In this study we developed a new methodology, based on DGT with acti...
متن کاملNumerical Evaluation of Lateral Diffusion Inside Diffusive Gradients in Thin Films Samplers
Using numerical simulation of diffusion inside diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) samplers, we show that the effect of lateral diffusion inside the sampler on the solute flux into the sampler is a nonlinear function of the diffusion layer thickness and the physical sampling window size. In contrast, earlier work concluded that this effect was constant irrespective of parameters of the samp...
