    Area of Science:

    • Environmental Science
    • Analytical Chemistry
    • Toxicology

    Context:

    • Metal hazards in the environment pose significant risks.
    • Occupational exposure, particularly in chrome tanning industries, requires sensitive monitoring.
    • Accurate quantification of heavy metals in biological samples is crucial for health assessments.

    Purpose:

    • To report the gas-chromatographic determination of environmental metal hazards.
    • To develop and present a rapid method for analyzing sub-nanogram amounts of chromium in blood.
    • To compare the developed method with atomic absorption spectrometry.

    Summary:

    • A rapid gas chromatography (GLC) method was developed for quantifying chromium in blood samples.
    • The method involves forming chromium trifluoroacetylacetonate [Cr(tfa)3] and using electron-capture GLC for detection.
