Simultaneous determination of arsenic (Ⅲ) and arsenic (Ⅴ) in polluted Sg. Riu, Perak water samples

Contamination of the environment with arsenic (As) from both natural sources and anthropogenic activities has occurred in many parts of the world and also has been recognised as a global problem. Although there is no specific legislation for As species values but the researchers found that inorga...
