Evaluation of heavy metal pollution in coastal sediments of Bandar Abbas, the Persian Gulf, Iran: Mercury pollution and environmental geochemical indices.

TL;DR: In this paper, the cold vapor-atomic absorption spectrophotometry was used to measure the heavy element Mercury in coastal sediments of the Persian Gulf (Bandar Abbas region).
Journal ArticleDOI

Environmental assessment of heavy metal concentration and pollution in the Persian Gulf

TL;DR: In this article, the main aim of the present study was to assess the pollution loading and ecological risk of toxicity levels in the surface sediment of the Persian Gulf, and about 56 surface sediment samples were considered to determine the toxicity and the geochemical concentration of the heavy metals including 24 elements.

Measurement and Evaluation of Ecological Risk of Heavy Metals in Surface Sediments of Pars Special Economic Energy Zone

TL;DR: In this paper, the concentration of heavy metals (mercury, cadmium, lead, chromium, copper, nickel, zinc and iron) in coastal sediments and assesses its ecological in the Pars Special Economic Energy Zone in the south of Iran.

Trace Element Concentrations in Fish, Surficial Sediments and Water from Northern Part of the Persian Gulf

TL;DR: The mean concentrations of the elements in muscle of the selected fish species were markedly below the international guidelines for human consumption, and the mean Ni, Pb and Cd levels in the water samples were relatively higher than those in some other regions of the Persian Gulf.

Simultaneous determination of Cd and Pb in foodstuffs by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for the simultaneous determination of cadmium and lead in foodstuffs by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) with a transversely heated graphite atomizer (THGA) and Zeeman effect background corrector is proposed.
