The aim of the study was to develop and validate analytical methods for the detection and quantification of arsenic species (As(III), DMA, MMA and As(V)) in different environmental matrices, including drinking water, surface water, groundwater, and sediments. The experimental tests were performed on a HPLC 1260 Infinity II coupled with an ICP-MS 7850 Agilent. For aqueous matrices, the method was validated within a working range of 10-50 microg/L using an Agilent G3154-65002 guard column and an Agilent G3154-65001 ...

The aim of this study was to investigate the process of accumulation of some toxic metals in Salvia Officinalis cultivated in-situ and also in controlled laboratory experiment. In situ experiment was located in a highly polluted area, situated in the proximity of abandoned gold mine and a waste dump. In the study were collected and analyzed four different samples of Salvia Officinalis, grown on polluted soil situated in different geographic directions around a waste dump. The analytical investigation indicated tha...

Our objectives were to investigate the bacteriological, biological and chemical status for sediment quality in a zone from Danube catchment according to Water Framework Directive. The area chosen for investigation is a large section of the Danube River on the section Bazias-Calarasi and its main tributaries located in the southern part of Romania (Jiu, Olt and Arges rivers) and the aquatic systems type пїЅdeltaпїЅ in the south-east of the Danube.
