Abstract: | The paper presents the changes in the thermal properties of control, arsenic exposed and DMSA treated Labeo rohita bones by using thermo analytical techniques. The result shows that the mass loss due to the thermal decomposition occurs
in three distinct steps due to loss of water, organic and inorganic materials. The arsenic exposed bones present a different
thermal behaviour compared to the control bones. The residue masses are increased due to arsenic exposure, while the DMSA
treatment reduces the residue mass level. These thermal characteristics can be used as a qualitative method to check the metal
accumulation in samples. |
