Bromine & iodine content in sponges & algae of the Andaman Sea

Br and I contents were determined spectrophotometrically in 12 species of sponges and 16 species of algae (red, brown and green). These elements on dry weight basis varied from 0.025 to 1.29% for Br and from 0.001 to 0.085% for I in sponges. I concentration varied form 0.003 to 0.0119% and Br from 0...

Description
Summary:Br and I contents were determined spectrophotometrically in 12 species of sponges and 16 species of algae (red, brown and green). These elements on dry weight basis varied from 0.025 to 1.29% for Br and from 0.001 to 0.085% for I in sponges. I concentration varied form 0.003 to 0.0119% and Br from 0.008 to 0.128% in algae, Phaeophyta and Rhodophyta being richest in both these elements
