Abstract

The detection of toxic metals including mercury and lead has become a vital analytical tool for environmental remediation and regulation of food stocks. A prevalent obstacle with the current assessment of metal ion contamination originates from the lack of adequate assay throughput. In this context, a critical concern with current analyses stems from the fact that the majority of these assays are solution-based, and thus the response is highly ...
