Determination of Trace Elements in Plankton
Plankton are passively drifting, mostly free-standing plants (phytoplankton) and single-celled animals (zooplankton) in the marine environment. In addition to various macro and micronutrients, seawater also contains non-essential or toxic metals (such as mercury, cadmium, lead, and arsenic) from weathering, leaching, and anthropogenic sources. These metals can be taken up by phytoplankton and cycled in the marine environment or assimilated by consumers and transferred into the marine food web. Uptake by plankton is an important pathway for introducing essential and toxic metals into marine food webs. Phytoplankton have been used to investigate pollution.
At CD BioSciences, we specialize in the determination of trace elements in plankton samples. Our state-of-the-art laboratory facilities and experienced team allow us to provide accurate and reliable analysis of trace elements, helping researchers and environmental scientists gain valuable insights into the impact of trace elements on plankton communities.
Our Services
We analyze your phytoplankton samples using proven techniques and report the concentrations of the trace elements. Our services are listed as follows:
- Sample Collection and Preparation
Our experts guide sampling protocols and ensure the use of correct collection methods for different types of plankton organisms. Additionally, we employ advanced techniques for sample preparation, including filtration, cell lysis, and elemental extraction, to ensure optimal results. - Trace Element Analysis
Our experts have extensive experience in trace element analysis using methods such as inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), and X-ray fluorescence (XRF).
- Determination of As, Co, Cu, Fe, Ni, Se, Si and Zn using germanium
- Determination of Al, Ba, Ca, Eu, Sr and Tl using indium
- Determination of Cd, Cr, Hg, Mg, Pb, Sb, Sn and V using rhodium
- Data Interpretation and Analysis
Our services extend beyond providing raw data. With a deep understanding of plankton ecology, our team of scientists assists in the interpretation and analysis of the trace element data obtained from your samples.
