ABSTRACT
Mercury determination in soil plays a crucial role in agriculture, environmental status, and human health. The detection of mercury allows for long-term and short-term analysis of each of these systems, and it gives information on specific sources of mercury contamination. The analysis of soil yields quantitative data for water quality, air quality, and crops. The concentration of mercury in soil depends on numerous variables. These include the industry, human impact, and mercury volatility conditions. In this study we utilize our CETAC QuickTrace™ M-7600 Cold Vapor Atomic Absorbance Analyzer in conjunction with our ASXPRESS® PLUS to increase throughput while maintaining low detection limits.
