Mercury(II ) and methylmercury cations at the sub-ppb level dithizone-anchored poly(vinylpyridine) as a chelating resin has also been described for this purpose,20,21 but the synthesis and were adsorbed quantitatively from aqueous solution onto a column packed with dithizone immobilized on sodium dodecyl preparation of this sorbent is tedious and requires three steps. Surfactant molecules are known to form self-aggregates sulfate coated alumina. The trapped mercury was then backextracted into the aqueous phase with 1 M hydrobromic acid called 'hemi-micelles' or 'ad-micelles' on solids. The hydrocarbon cores of the micelles give them the unique ability to and determined by cold vapour atomic absorption spectrometry by utilizing the reaction with sodium trap non-ionic compounds in acidic solutions. These micelles can also solubilize hydrophobic compounds which are other-tetrahydroborate. Mercury(II ) and methylmercury cations were completely recovered from water with a preconcentration wise sparsely soluble in water. For example, chromium() and chromium() in strong acidic solutions (0.24 HCl) were factor of 100. The analytical procedure was applied to the determination of mercury(II ) and methylmercury in river and separated by using a microcolumn of sodium dodecyl sulfate coated alumina.22 Under these conditions, chromium(), tap water.which is in the non-ionic state presumably in the form of Keywords: Mercury; dithizone; sodium dodecyl sulfate; cold H 2 CrO 4 or HCrO 3 Cl, is retained quantitatively on the column, vapour atomic absorption spectrometry while chromium(), which is cationic, remains unadsorbed. Surfactant-coated hydrated iron() oxide23 or alumina24 were Mercury compounds are known to be highly toxic. Sources of also used for the removal of toluene, p-xylene, trichloroethylene mercury are either man-made such as industrial wastes, pesticand pentachlorophenol from aqueous samples.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
