The soluble fraction of aerosol particulate matter containing trace metals has the potential to engender toxicity and exacerbate the adverse health effects of particulate matter. In this study, an inertial-impaction-based fluidic chip integrated with elect ...
The presence of metal salts has become one of the major limitations for measuring metallic nanoparticles (NPs) in single particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (spICP-MS). Their presence generates a background signal in spICP-MS that can be ...
Understanding the deactivation mechanisms affecting the state-of-the-art, Ir oxide catalysts employed in polymer electrolyte water electrolyser (PEWE-) anodes is of utmost importance to guide catalyst design and improve PEWE-durability. With this motivatio ...
The soluble fraction of atmospheric transition metals is particularly associated with health effects such as reactive oxygen species compared to total metals. However, direct measurements of the soluble fraction are restricted to sampling and detection uni ...
