This study investigates the trophic interactions and As and Cd transfer along seven marine ecosystems in Peru. Five of these ecosystems are driven by aquaculture of the Peruvian scallop Argopecten purpuratus. A southward increased gradient of delta N-15 was observed among the three examined regions along the Peruvian coast. The stable isotope analy...

While elemental mapping via LA-ICP-MS - i.e. mapping the distribution of elements across the surface of a solid material - has shown a substantial evolution towards higher speed, sensitivity and spatial resolution, some elements show a significantly longer single pulse response (SPR) duration due to their specific physicochemical properties. This w...

Workers involved in the processing of electronic waste (e-waste) are potentially exposed to toxic chemicals. If exposure occurs, this may result in uptake and potential adverse health effects. Thus, exposure surveillance is an important requirement for health risk management and prevention of occupational disease. Human biomonitoring by measurement...

Bivalves are a good source of nutrients but also a potential source of environmental contaminants, which could pose a risk for consumers. The aims of this study were: the determination of 16 elements by ICP-MS in 48 samples of five bivalve species purchased from market in Korea; the identification of elements useful for species classification using...

Metal-on-metal (MoM) prostheses, in which the bearing surfaces are made of a metal alloy, may release metal ions upon wear and corrosion, potentially inducing both local and systemic toxicity. As the systemic cobalt concentration increases with the degree of implant wear, this concentration needs to be monitored as a means of assessing implant func...

This research focused on the contents of the five most bio-toxic heavy metals, As, Cd, Hg, Cr, and Pb of 26 municipal solid waste (MSW) samples from the Eastern Guangdong Area. To investigate the apportion of the heavy metal source, Pearson correlation and principal component analysis (PCA) were introduced as major approaches. The health risks pose...
