A 1 Case-PR/ }*Rciofft.;Is Report
.A 1 case-PR/ }*rciofft.;is Report (a) This eruption site on Mauna Loa Volcano was the main source of the voluminous lavas that flowed two- thirds of the distance to the town of Hilo (20 km). In the interior of the lava fountains, the white-orange color indicates maximum temperatures of about 1120°C; deeper orange in both the fountains and flows reflects decreasing temperatures (<1100°C) at edges and the surface. (b) High winds swept the exposed ridges, and the filter cannister was changed in the shelter of a p^hoehoc (lava) ridge to protect the sample from gas contamination. (c) Because of the high temperatures and acid gases, special clothing and equipment was necessary to protect the eyes. nose, lungs, and skin. Safety features included military flight suits of nonflammable fabric, fuil-face respirators that are equipped with dual acidic gas filters (purple attachments), hard hats, heavy, thick-soled boots, and protective gloves. We used portable radios to keep in touch with the Hawaii Volcano Observatory, where the area's seismic activity was monitored continuously. (d) Spatter activity in the Pu'u O Vent during the January 1984 eruption of Kilauea Volcano. Magma visible in the circular conduit oscillated in a piston-like fashion; spatter was ejected to heights of 1 to 10 m. During this activity, we sampled gases continuously for 5 hours at the west edge. Cover photo: This aerial view of Kilauea Volcano was taken in April 1984 during overflights to collect gas samples from the plume. The bluish portion of the gas plume contained a far higher density of fine-grained scoria (ash). -

Diseases associated with selenium deficiency To demonstrate the accurate determination of arsenic such as Keshan disease and symptoms of hypothyroidism, and selenium in sediments and rocks that contain elevated are most commonly found in areas where levels of levels of rare earth elements using triple quadrupole selenium in soil are particularly low. Supplementation as a ICP-MS. remedy is common practice and is not isolated to humans. Understanding where soil selenium deficiencies occur for Introduction example supports the correct supplementation of cattle Due to the impact arsenic and selenium can have in the grazing in those areas to prevent white muscle disease environment at low levels, as a toxin or essential nutrient (a cattle specific selenium deficiency disease). respectively, it is important to be able to quantify them accurately. Arsenic on the other hand, in its inorganic forms Instrumentation (the most common forms found in ground water and soils) An iCAP TQ ICP-MS was used to analyse all samples.
