Investigation of the dissolution kinetics of lanthanide complexes with the technique of diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT)

Understanding the physico-chemical fate and bioavailability of metals requires knowledge of the forms that the metals occur in (the speciation). Diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) is a technique for passive sampling of metals and it has in situ spec iation capabilities in that it collects o...
