Arsenic (As) compounds can be classified as organic or inorganic, with inorganic arsenic (iAs) having significantly higher toxicity than organic As. As may accumulate in food materials that have been exposed to As-contaminated environments. Thus, the “Sanitation Standard for Contaminants and Toxins in Foods” published by the Ministry of Health and Welfare set the standard limits for iAs content in rice, seaweed, seafood, and marine oils to safeguard public health. Therefore, a robust analytical method must be developed to selectively and quantitatively determine iAs content in rice, seaweed, seafood, and marine oils. Herein, we reported and verified the method of …


In Situ Arsenic Speciation Using Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy And The Coffee Ring Effect, Valery Liamtsau Jun 2021

In Situ Arsenic Speciation Using Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy And The Coffee Ring Effect, Valery Liamtsau

FIU Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The coffee ring effect (CRE) phenomenon is originated from the nonuniform solvent evaporation of a sessile droplet deposited onto the flat substrate. Once the evaporation starts, the droplet suspended particles move outwards by the radial flow and concentrate in the edge region of the evaporating droplet, resulting in the formation of the so-called CRE stains. In this work we have expanded the applications of the CRE from separation of particles and macromolecules to small molecules, in particular, coupled to surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). Herein, we have developed a theoretical framework to describe the CRE-driven separation process of small molecules, using …
