	abstract = {Antimony was extracted from environmental biota samples from Yellowknife, NWT and Meager Creek, BC, Canada. Extraction efficiencies ranged from 0.7 to 37\% for all samples except for a cattail sample, from which 95\% of antimony was extracted. Speciation analysis was carried out by using hydride generation-gas chromatography-atomic absorption spectrometry (HG-GC-AAS). The major antimony species in all samples, including biota extracts and water, was Sb (V). Sb (III) and methylated antimony species were detected in some samples as well. The presence of methylated antimony species in moss from Yellowknife and a water sample from Yellowknife was confirmed by using HG-GC-AAS at a second absorption wavelength, increasing the likelihood that the peaks obtained are due to the presence of antimony compounds. A headspace HG-GC-mass spectrometric (MS) method was developed for the speciation of antimony compounds and this was used to successfully confirm methylantimony species in the headspace following HG of extracts of moss and snail samples from Yellowknife.},

	abstract = {Volatile metal(loid)organic species of geogenic and anthropogenic origin are analyzed by low temperature gas chromatography coupled on-line with plasma mass spectrometry (LTGC/ICP MS) with detection limits in the higher pg-range (per m(3) gas). In respect to the determination of aqueous samples, this instrumental technique is combined with sample derivatization by the hydride generation technique. Volatile species of As, Sb, Sr and I could be detected in gases over hot springs in British Columbia (Canada). Methylated species of Hg, Ge, As, Sb and Te were also determined in concentrations in the ng/kg- to low mu g/kg-range in geothermal waters from Ruapehu, Waimangu, Waiotapu and Tokaanu (North Island, New Zealand); up to 1\% of the total dissolved metal(loid)s are found in methylated forms. Volatile metal(loid)organic species of geogenic origin are compared with those emanating from anthropogenic sources (waste and sewage gases, river and harbor sediments). Possible formation mechanisms for these compounds are discussed. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. Ail rights reserved.},
