title: Silver nanoparticles for the adsorption of manganese from biological samples.
abstract: In this study, silver nanoparticles were prepared and used for separation and preconcentration of manganese from biological samples. The technical feasibility of silver nanoparticles for manganese removal was investigated under batch studies. The effects of different parameters such as pH of solution, time (t), amounts of PAN (E), and silver nanoparticles (N) on the adsorption of manganese by silver nanoparticle were investigated using factorial design and response surface methodology based on Box-Behnken design. Thermodynamic parameters indicate the adsorption process to be exothermic. The limit of detection of the proposed method followed by inductively coupled plasma was found to be 0.08 µg L(-1). The method was applied to determine of manganese in biological samples.
