The Analysis of Trace Elements in Honey by Flame and Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption Spectrometry

Evaluation of a New Forked Platform Design for Graphite Furnace AAS Authors

Graphite furnace techniques are characterized by excellent analytical sensitivity. They are methods of choice for the determination of trace elements in various environmental, biological, and clinical samples. However, they can be plagued by chemical and background interferences which complicate methods development and sample analysis. Using the graphite platform technique, these interferences ...

The Reduction of Matrix Interferences Utilizing the Platform in Graphite Furnace AAS

Graphite furnace techniques are characterized by excellent analytical sensitivity and are the methods of choice for the determination of trace elements in various environmental, biological, and clinical samples. However, they can be plagued by matrix interferences which complicate methods development and sample analysis. This is particularly true for the determination of volatile elements in co...

Graphite Furnace AAS: Application of Reduced Palladium as a Chemical Modifier

Chemical modification techniques are widely used in graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS). Palladium is a very effective chemical modifier and can be used to stabilize many elements to several hundred degrees higher than the temperatures possible with current methods [1-9]. Of the elements tested, the greatest temperature shifts are achieved for the semi-metallic elements such...

Determination of Trace Elements in Rice Products by Flame and Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption Spectrometry

The Thermo Scientific iCE 3000 Series Atomic Absorption Spectrometers are the ideal tool for the accurate and rapid determination of multiple trace elements in rice products. Flame atomic absorption can be used as a fast screening tool for the analysis of nutritional elements such as copper, manganese and zinc, while graphite furnace atomic absorption can be used for the accurate determination ...
