a facile and highly efficient method have been developed for the preconcentration of the mercury content in crude oil and gasoline samples after digestion with microwave-assisted digestion. octadecyl silica membrane disk has been modified by the recently synthesized triazene ligand, (e)-1-(2-ethoxyphenyl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl) triaz-1-ene (ent), then the modified membrane was used for the preconcen...

background: the objective of this work was developing a simple and stable time-based on-line setup for assessing the potential of mercury (hg) vapor adsorption of the commercial sorbents used in air sampling and control operation followed by cold vapor atomic absorption spectrometry (cvaas). methods: a special designed separation chamber was used where reduction of the injected hg (ii) solution...

Multiwall carbon nanotubes, prepared by chemical vapor deposition, have an average diameter of 60-100 nm as shown by High Resolution Transmittance Electron Microscope, HR-TEM. The Multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were further characterized using X-ray Diffraction and Raman Spectroscopy. Mercury uptake capacity of MWCNTs was studied using batch adsorption method at different concentration ran...

Copyright © 2015 by The Geochemical Society of Japan. mercury in seawater can be an indicator of widespread underwater mineral deposits (Marumo et al., 2008; Tomiyasu et al., 2007). Therefore, deep-sea mercury monitoring is very important to both the caution of environmental pollution and the exploration of underwater mineral deposits. Due to their high sensitivity, cold vapor atomic absorption...

The elements Fe, Cu, Mn, Zn, Cr, Ni, Pb and Cd were determined in the meat and skin of fish by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS). The fish were grown in treated wastewater, Zayanderood river, and fisheries of Flavarjan and Babolsar. Arsenic and mercury in the samples were analyzed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Emission Spectroscopy and Cold Vapor AAS, respectively. The concentration of t...

Monitoring of mercury in environmental samples, with its proven toxicity on the food chain, requires sensitive and accurate analytical techniques. In this study, two methods for identification and quantification of total mercury in biological and sediment samples are compared: i) dry ash preparation and subsequent established procedures for Combustion Atomic Absorption Spectrometry, (AMA 254) ...

A procedure is provided for the determination of mercury in animal tissue using a single unit stationary cold-vapor generator utilizing atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The entire reduction-absorption cell is fitted to the burner mount on the instrument. Sample digests are introduced into the sample compartment along with reductant, and background corrected absorbance is measured after thre...

a new and simple method followed by atomic absorption spectrometry has been developedfor indirect determination of ascorbic acid (aa). the proposed method was based on the oxidationof aa to dehydroascorbic acid with cu2+cation(200mgl-1)in an ammonium thiocyanatesolution atph2.4. aa reduces cu2+to cu+followed by the precipitation of cu+ with scn-. then, the excess ofcu2+in the solution was measu...
