If a plant can be identified as a hyper-accumulator of inorganic arsenic, then the plant can be used to bio-remediate contaminated soil.
One solution would be to use a plant that absorbs much of the arsenic from the environment to clean up contaminated sites naturally.
In this experiment we used acid digestion to prepare the plant to be analyzed.
