Speciation of mercury in water and fish samples by HPLC-ICP-MS after magnetic solid phase extraction

Risk assessment of mercury and methyl mercury intake via sardine and swordfish consumption in Algeria

“…It exists mainly in different forms of elemental mercury (HgO), inorganic mercury (Hg + , Hg 2+ ) and organic mercury (MeHg + , EtHg + ,PhHg + , etc.) (Zhu et al, 2017). Mercury, an element also known as quicksilver, causes different toxic effects on the nervous, digestive and immune systems, as well as the lungs, kidneys, skin, and eyes.…”

Temperature-controlled ionic liquid dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction combined with fluorescence detection of ultra-trace Hg2+ in water

“…4 As a result, accurate and highly sensitive sensors of trace Hg 2+ are in high demand. Various methods have been reported for the detection of Hg 2+ in the ng L À1 range, among which atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS), 5,6 atomic uorescence spectrometry (AFS), [7][8][9] and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) 10,11 are popular methods. However, these methods require very expensive, complex and bulky instrumentation.…”

Novel sulfonamidospirobifluorenes as fluorescent sensors for mercury(ii) ion and glutathione

“…6 Hence, close monitoring of mercury and its ionic species that contaminate the environment is of great signicance. Several techniques such as atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), 7 atomic emission spectroscopy (AES), 8 inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), 9 and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) 10 are routinely used for the analysis of mercury. Even though these methods can provide high sensitivity, accuracy, and precision, they are not practical for real-time or on-site analysis.…”
