R. Capelli et al., A NEW SAMPLER (MARIKIKI) FOR DEEP-WATER FOR THE DETERMINATION OF MERCURY AT NG L-1 LEVEL, Annali di chimica, 88(5-6), 1998, pp. 413-417
A sampler to obtain deep sea water samples for mercury determination a
t ng L-1 level, was designed and tested during a series of oceanograph
ic cruises. Results indicated that, with the described sampler, contam
ination free samples can be collected at depth up to 800 meters. Detai
ls of sampler construction are given and an assembly to couple two bot
tles is described.
