determination of metal levels in muscle, liver and gill of common carp ( cyprinus carpio ) species caught from shirinsu wetland was done using icp-oes. the mean level of cu, pb and zn in muscle, liver and gill of fish were 0.01±0.002, 0.015±0.003, 0.007±0.001; 0.13±0.005, 0.006±0.001, 0.62±0.11 and 0.26±0.008, 0.009±0.002, 0.53±0.10 μg g −1 , respectively. metal levels in muscle were generally ...

Background and purpose: Determination of heavy metals in oils is necessary to establish quality standards on a country level. This study aimed to determine of heavy metal contents (Cr, Ni, As, Cd, Hg, Pb, Sb, Sn, Sr, Al) in 12 seed oil samples in Iran by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). Materials and Methods: The concentrations of heavy metal were determined b...

A sample-pretreatment method using a chitosan-based chelating resin, ethylenediamine-N,N,N'-triacetate-type chitosan (EDTriA-type chitosan), was developed for the preconcentration of trace metals in seawater and separation of the seawater matrix prior to their determination by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The resin showed very good adsorption for transition metals and ...

A novel and highly sensitive method for the determination of some heavy metals in skin whitening cosmetics creams using multiwalled carbon nanotubes MWCNTs as solid phase extraction sorbent for the preconcentration of these heavy metals prior to their determination by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry is described. Different practical parameters have been thoroughly invest...

cloud point extraction and spectrophotometric determination of trace quantities of cadmium in some vegetables have been developed. the research area for vegetables analysis was near to the zarin shahr where the soil received heavy metals from the esfahan steel company. cloud point extraction used dithizone as complexing agent and non ionic surfactant triton-x114 as micellar phase. several impor...

A simple and sensitive method for the determination of some metalloids and heavy metals in water samples is presented. The method is based on the preconcentration of the attachment of chelating functionalities with metalloids and toxic metals irreversibly and targeted towards toxic metals adsorbed on modified activated carbon, activated carbon and red soil particles at pH 3.0–9.0±0.2, followed ...

A simple and convenient method is described for the determination of low concentration palladium based on differential pulse polarographic reduction of Pd(II) in presence of ethylenediamine. Linearity of the calibration curve was achieved upto 27 ppm with a limit of determination 0.01 μg/ml. The possible interference of usually present other platinum group metals was examined and ruled out. The...

This Horizontal Standard includes principles and procedures for the determination of trace metals in aqua regia and nitric acid digests of sludge, soil and treated biowaste and neighbouring samples, using atomic absorption spectrometry with electrothermal atomization in a graphite furnace. The method is applicable for determination of low concentrations of the following elements: Ag, Cd, Co, Cr...

Background: Increasing awareness on the environmental impact of heavy metals has increased a considerable interest in the determination of metals in natural water bodies. The present paper describes the development and electrochemical application of carbon paste electrode modified with fibrous part of coconut shell for the determination of cadmium in water samples. Methods: Determination was ca...
