The various chemical forms of 74As accumulated from either water or food by the marine food chain [Fucus spiralis (L.) ~ Littorina littoralis (L.) ~ Nucella Iapillus] have been separated and characterized. Arsenic components were separated by differential extraction followed by high-voltage paper el
The chemical forms of arsenic in some herbivorous or mainly herbivorous marine animals and, in some cases, the algae on which they feed were determined by HPLC-ICP MS. In most cases arsenobetaine was present in the animals as well as arsenosugars consumed directly from the algae. However in the case
Arsenic metabolism was studied for two marine microorganisms, a facultative anaerobic bacterium, Serratia marinorubra, and an obligately aerobic yeast, Rhodotorula rubra. Both were cultivated in media with (74As) arsenate (As V), and the products of arsenate metabolism were determined qualitatively.
