My research is focused on the identification, and transport and the fate of trace metals in soil and aquatic environments. This includes chemical speciation of arsenic and antimony and characterization of trace metals bound to soil-derived humic acids by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) or ion chromatography (IC) coupled with inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Dula is also interested in the application of laser ablation (LA)-ICP-MS for investigation of trace metal nutrition and the exposure to toxic metal pollutants using biological hard tissue such as human teeth.
