“…Arsenic and selenium are metalloids that have been extracted using DLLME-SFOD [ 76 , 77 , 78 , 79 ]. In regard to the transition metals, zinc [ 80 ], cobalt [ 55 ], copper [ 17 , 74 ], mercury [ 74 , 75 , 77 ], nickel [ 55 ], cadmium [ 17 , 74 , 75 , 80 ], and chromium [ 81 ] have all been quantified using DES in DLLME-SFOD. Most of the reported methods have been established to determine the total metal concentration; however, only a handful of them involve speciation investigations [ 56 , 57 , 58 ].…”
