119Sn Mössbauer Spectroscopy Studies on the Interaction of Organotin(IV) Salts and Complexes with Biological Systems and Molecules

Inorganic speciation of organotin(IV) cations in natural waters with particular reference to seawater

“…as antifouling additives in paints for ships (Blunden et al, 1985;Champ and Seligman, 1996;Zuckerman et al, 1978), and from the bioalkylation processes of inorganic tin (Blunden and Chapman, 1986;Thayer 1993). Many papers and reports describing their environmental impact on living organisms, have been published over the past few decades (Arakawa, and Wada, 1993;Barnes and Magos 1968;Thayer 1978;Mennie and Craig;1993, Barbieri et al 2000, and many efforts have been made to point out analytical methodologies for separateling and detecting mono-, di-and tri-organotin derivatives at very low concentration levels in water, sediments and biota (Craig and Miller, 1997;Frache and Rivaro, 2000).…”
