Method to reduce the memory effect of mercury in the analysis of fish tissue using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry

A rugged and transferable method for determining blood cadmium, mercury, and lead with inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry

“…Other analysts have used internal standards, including scandium, rhodium, indium, iridium, thallium, and bismuth individually or in combinations, for determination of cadmium, mercury, and lead in blood or tissues [7][8][9][10][11]16,17,20,21]. We used iridium as the lone internal standard, since it is chemically similar to the analytes.…”

Measuring mercury ion concentration with a carbon nano tube paste electrode using the cyclic voltammetry method

“…Thus, various methods for analyzing Hg(II) and its analogs have been developed in the past. Some examples of these methods are zeeman atomic absorption spectrometry [7], high performance chromatography with UV detection method [8], and flow injection coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry [2]. The HPLC-fluorescence spectrometry method [9] and other methods [10,11] are particularly very sensitive.…”

“…Trace mercury detection has a variety of important and practical applications in various fields, particularly in areas where mercury is widely distributed, such as food, agriculture, water, coal, and painting paste [1][2][3][4][5][6]. Thus, various methods for analyzing Hg(II) and its analogs have been developed in the past.…”

An optical sensor based on H-acid/layered double hydroxide composite film for the selective detection of mercury ion

“…As a consequence of this pollution, mercury can accumulate in the human body causing a wide variety of diseases, even in a low concentration, such as digestive, kidney and especially neurological disorders. The determination of mercury has been generally carried out based on atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) [8,9] and inductively coupled plasma spectroscopy (ICP) technique [10][11][12]. Although these methods have good sensitivity and fast measurement capabilities, they require expensive instruments, well-controlled experimental conditions and complicated sample-pretreatment procedures.…”
