Description
Summary:Heavy metals have long been identified as hazardous toxins in the environment due to the effect of high stability and capacity to bioaccumulate. One of the important step in the overall strategy in environmental remediation is to provide rapid, in silu, robust, low cost and eco-fnendly monitoring and detection of the pollutant. The challenge is to achieve high sensitivity and selectivity in environmental and biological samples predominantly at low analyte concentrations and in the presence of interfering substances. Spectroscopic analytical techniques such as AAS, lCP-MS and ICP-OES are sophisticated but only suitable for well-equipped and well-funded laboratory, not in the field application. The current work describes the development, optimization and validation of novel Cellulose/Hydroxyapatite (HAp)/Carbon-paste Modified Electrode (CME) for qualitative and quantitative analyses of Pb(ll) ions in aqueous medium, blood serum, and POME. employing Cyclic Voltammctry (CV) and Square Wave Anodic Stripping Voltammctry (SW ASV) techniques.
