Fabrication of a Microfluidic-Based Device Coated with Polyelectrolyte-Capped Titanium Dioxide to Couple High-Performance Liquid Chromatography with Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry for Mercury Speciation.

Mercury (Hg) is a toxic element which impacts on biological systems and ecosystems. Because the toxicity of Hg species is highly dependent on their concentration levels and chemical forms, the sensitive identification of the chemical forms of Hg-i.e.
