title: [Assay of total mercury in blood, plasma and erythrocytes by emission spectrometry-induced plasma HF (SEPIHF)].
abstract: The mercury quantification in blood can be performed by ICPAES after dilution in an ammonia buffer and reduction by sodium borohydride. The proposed method does not need mineralization. The sample is not nebulized in the torch but the mercury vapor, after collection in a reactor vial, is swept into the plasma by the carrier gas (argon) using the described glass apparatus, and quantified at lambda = 253.65 nm.
