Description

The main activities for last year were on the analysis of toxic elements in vegetables, milk and poultry samples. At the same time works on the radiochemical separation were conducted as most of these samples contain less amount of toxic elements of interest. The separation technique for As was established i.e. precipitation method. This method apparently gives a good recovery. As for Sb, Se and Hg we are still studying the best separation techniques. 5 tabs
