Environment International, 134, Article 105218. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envint.2019.105218

Plasma selenium (Se) concentration is an established population level biomarker of Se status, especially in Se-deficient populations. Previously observed correlations between dietary Se intake and urinary Se excretion suggest that urine Se concentrat...

Investigating the use of microdialysis and SEC-UV-ICP-MS to assess iodine interactions in soil solution (2019)
Journal Article
Humphrey, O., Young, S., Bailey, E., Crout, N., Ander, E., Hamilton, E., & Watts, M. (2019). Investigating the use of microdialysis and SEC-UV-ICP-MS to assess iodine interactions in soil solution. Chemosphere, 229, 41-50. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemosphere.2019.04.215

Element cycling in the terrestrial environment is heavily reliant upon processes that occur in soil solution. Here we present the first application of microdialysis to sample iodine from soil solution. In comparison to conventional soil solution extr...
