Determination of Rubidium in Biological Materials Using Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy

Indirect Determination of Ascorbic Acid by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy

A new and simple method followed by atomic absorption spectrometry has been developedfor indirect determination of ascorbic acid (AA). The proposed method was based on the oxidationof AA to dehydroascorbic acid with Cu2+cation(200mgL-1)in an ammonium thiocyanatesolution atpH2.4. AA reduces Cu2+to Cu+followed by the precipitation of Cu+ with SCN-. Then, the excess ofCu2+in the solution was measu...

Determination of manganese in biological materials by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry: a review.

The great diversity of methods for measuring manganese in biological materials (serum, plasma, whole blood, urine, spinal fluid, and hair) reflects the difficulty in measuring extremely small quantities of this element. Detailed examination of these methods demonstrates that the one most used is flameless atomic absorption spectrometry. In this review we report the different instrument settings...

Modulation transfer spectroscopy in atomic rubidium

We report modulation transfer spectroscopy on the D2 transitions in 85Rb and 87Rb using a simple home-built electro-optic modulator (EOM). We show that both the gradient and amplitude of modulation transfer spectroscopy signals, for the 87Rb F = 2 → F ′ = 3 and the 85Rb F = 3 → F ′ = 4 transitions, can be significantly enhanced by expanding the beams, improving the signals for laser frequency s...
