Abstract
This review presents analytical strategies for mercury trace analysis in environmental and drinking water samples by the application of nanomaterials (NMs). The methods are subsequently classified into two groups: (A) approaches aiming to substitute elaborate sample pretreatment, separation and pre-concentration procedures by simplified procedures and (B) approaches providing enhanced detection techniques with regard to fast signal read-out, miniaturised instrumentation and, simultaneously, high sensitivity. Therefore, the review includes NM-based sample preparation as well as optical and electrochemical detection techniques. Their applicability for monitoring purpose is discussed by evaluating sensitivity and selectivity considering real-water matrices as well as by assessing the simplicity and duration of the analysis. A selection of examples published within the last 3 years is presented in Tableâ2, Tableâ3. These are sorted into methods allowing for monitoring of the permissible Hg levels in drinking water (limit of detection, LOD <10ânM) and those capable of detecting ultra-trace levels of mercury in pristine environmental waters (LODâ<â0.05ânM).
