Regular heavy metal screening is an essential component of pollution surveillance, particularly in areas impacted by industrial activities or previous extraction. This process typically involves obtaining specimens of earth, water, or organic matter and then testing them for the presence of several toxic metals such as lead, As, cadmium, and mercur

Heavy metal contamination within environmental matrices poses a significant risk to both human and ecosystem well-being. A comprehensive understanding of heavy metal amounts is crucial for establishing effective mitigation strategies. Analytical techniques such as neutron activation analysis are commonly employed to measure the presence and abunda
