TL;DR: It was found that the coastal sediments from the central east coast of India could act as a sink for Hg and the availability of strong uncomplexed-Hg binding sites in the coastal Sediments was observed.

TL;DR: The results of this study demonstrate that the comet assay with RTH-149 cells can be successfully applied to a variety of aquatic samples revealing freshwater, marine and estuary conditions and is found to be fast, sensitive, and suitable for monitoring programs.
Abstract: The alkaline comet assay, a sensitive method for DNA strand breaks and alkali labile site detection in individual cells, was employed here as an ecotoxicological monitoring tool for evaluation of genotoxicity in the Kishon River, Israel. This river, the most polluted river in Israel, has recently elicited major public concern with regard to cancer incidences in people who have dived there over many years. Five water samples were collected every odd month throughout the year 2001, from four localities. The comet assay was employed on fish hepatoma cell line RTH-149. Cells were exposed for 2 h, in triplicate, to Kishon water: medium (1:1) samples that were pre-adjusted for pH and salinity percentage levels. Three DNA damage parameters (comet percentages, score of damage, and cumulative tail lengths of the comet), revealed significantly higher genotoxic values in Kishon water-treated cells as compared with the controls (up to 2.4, 3.2, and 3.6-fold, respectively). Part of the sampling sites revealed higher genotoxicity than other polluted sites. The results of this study demonstrate that the comet assay with RTH-149 cells can be successfully applied to a variety of aquatic samples revealing freshwater, marine and estuary conditions. The method found to be fast, sensitive, and suitable for monitoring programs.

TL;DR: In this paper, a 3-step sequential separation chemistry for Sr, Nd and Pb from silicate samples, which is suitable for isotope analysis by MC-ICP-MS as well as TIMS, has been developed.
Abstract: A new 3-step sequential separation chemistry for Sr, Nd and Pb from silicate samples, which is suitable for isotope analysis by MC-ICP-MS as well as TIMS, has been developed. The chemistry is designed to minimize the number of evaporation steps, enabling high throughput especially when MC-ICP-MS is employed. The sample solution in 0.5 mol l-1 HNO3 after digestion with HF-HClO4, which is prepared for trace element analysis, can be directly used in the new chemistry. In the first column using Sr resin, Sr and Pb are collected. The recovered solution for Sr can be directly aspirated into MC-ICP-MS. The Pb solution is dried, re-dissolved, separated into two aliquots and measured by double spike MC-ICP-MS. Subsequently, LREEs are collected by the second column packed with cation exchange resin. Finally, Nd was purified from Sm using Ln resin in the third column. The recovered Nd solution can also be directly nebulized into MC-ICP-MS. The Sr and Nd isotope ratios for the standard material JB-3 (basalt) from the Geological Survey of Japan by MC-ICP-MS and TIMS were reported to verify the chemistry and mass spectrometry developed in this study.
