Table 1 LOD and LOQ for the detection of the various isotopes in moss samples and concentrations of four subsamples (moss A–D) of the moss-material before exposure; concentrations are given in µg/g dry-weight; LR low resolution, MR medium resolution, HR high resolution according the method of analysis

From: Indoor monitoring of heavy metals and NO2 using active monitoring by moss and Palmes diffusion tubes
