Methodologies for the environmental analysis of total antimony and aqueous chemical speciation are critically reviewed, including preparation techniques for aqueous and solid matrices and the determination of solid state partitioning and recommendations are given for future research directions. Concentrations of
This review summarizes and discusses the research carried out on the determination of antimony and its predominant chemical species in atmospheric aerosols. Environmental matrices such as airborne particulate matter, fly ash and volcanic ash present a number of complex analytical
The paper reviews the information available concerning the mutagenic, teratogenic and carcinogenic effects of antimony. A claim that antimony compounds could have mutagenic properties is based on insufficient and not particularly relevant data. Additional experiments, particularly with organic antimony compounds
