General description
Application
- Trace Element and Methylmercury Analysis: Utilizing high-purity freeze-dried mussel tissue as a reference material, research in Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry has certified the content of methylmercury and other trace elements, facilitating accurate environmental monitoring and ensuring the reliability of bioaccumulation studies (Davis et al., 2007).
- Standard Reference Material Development: Freeze-dried mussel tissue is critical in the development of new standard reference materials for the determination of organic contaminants. This is essential for environmental labs to calibrate instruments and validate methods, ensuring consistency and accuracy across studies (Poster et al., 2004).
- Extraction Techniques for Trace Metals: Research in Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry demonstrates the simultaneous co-extraction of organometallic species using accelerated solvent extraction techniques, where freeze-dried mussel tissue is used to study the bioavailability and mobility of trace metals and methylmercury (Wahlen & Catterick, 2004).
- Pollutant Analysis in Biota: The determination of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners and chlorinated pesticides in mussel tissue, as detailed in Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, underlines the application of mussel tissue in assessing pollution levels and studying the ecological impact of chemical contaminants (Poster et al., 2003).
- Certification of Methylmercury Content: The certification of methylmercury content in freeze-dried mussel tissue, as reported in Fresenius′ Journal of Analytical Chemistry, supports its use in quantifying this hazardous substance in marine environments, thereby aiding in the assessment of food safety and public health risks (Tutschku et al., 2001).
