Abstract

The influence of pH, ionic strength and selected natural ligands on the measurement of mercury by the diffusive gradients in thin films technique (DGT) using recently introduced sorption gels was determined. Sorption gels containing Chelex 100, Spheron-Thiol, Duolite GT73 and modified Iontosorb AV resins were investigated, with the sorption capacity determined for all used sorption gels. The minimum DGT measurable concentrations were calculated from 3 times the standard deviation of mercury amount in unexposed sorption gels.
