A simple and rapid solidified vortex assisted 1-undecanol based liquid-liquid microextraction technique was proposed for preconcentration of trace levels of lead ions. The extraction solvent (1-undecanol) was dispersed into the aqueous samples by the assistance of vortex agitator. 100 µL of 1-undecanol containing ethyl (2Z)-3-[(5-chloro-7-methyl[1,3]thiazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidi...

Lead contamination is a serious threat to human health and the environment. 2] Lead poisoning is still one of the most common environmentally caused diseases in the world today. Lead levels are typically measured by using atomic absorption spectroscopy or other related instrumental methods. Probes that can provide rapid, on-site evaluation of the lead content of a sample are very valuable for a...

Chloride ions were found to potentially increase activity of cerussite surfaces. Dissolution experiments, zeta potential measurements, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) studies, and density functional theory (DFT) computation were conducted in this study. Dissolution experiments showed that the lead ion concentrations in the NaCl solution system were lower than those in the deionized water...

a simple method has been developed for the preconcentration of lead (ii) based on the adsorption of its 1-(2-pyridyl azo)2-naphtol (pan) complex on aoctadecyl bonded silica cartridges. the influence of acidity, eluting agents, stability of the column, sample volume and interfering ions has been investigated in detail. the adsorbed complex could be eluted using environmentally benign hno34m and ...

The efficacy of the Banana peel (Musa sapientum) biomass was tested for the removal of lead, copper, zinc and nickel metal ions using batch experiments in single and binary metal solution under controlled experimental conditions. It is found that metal sorption increases when the equilibrium metal concentration rises. At highest experimental solution concentration used (150 mg/L), the removal o...
