Matrix Precipitation for the Analysis of High-Purity Tin Metal by Electrothermal Atomic Absorption Spectrometry.

Quantification of vanadium in serum by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry.

We describe an ultrasensitive and reliable method for determining vanadium in human serum by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry. After lyophilization, the serum is digested in acid at high pressure, and the digests are evaporated to a small volume. Vanadium in the digests is complexed with cupferron, extracted, and dried. The residue is redissolved in formic acid, where it is 15-fold...

Determination of cadmium in wine by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry.

A method is described for direct electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometric (ETAAS) determination of cadmium in untreated samples of wine. Pyrolytic graphite tubes and graphite tubes with standard L'vov pyrolytic platforms were tested as atomizers. The detection limit achieved was 0.08 microg L(-1) Cd in wine. The relative standard deviation for the concentration range from 0.2 to 10 microg...

Determination of Metal Impurities in Carbon Nanotubes by Direct Solid Sampling Electrothermal Atomic Absorption Spectrometry

A determinação de Al, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Mg, Mn e Pb em nanotubos de carbono (CNTs) foi realizada por espectrometria de absorção atômica com atomização eletrotérmica e amostragem direta de sólidos (DSS-ET AAS, corretor de fundo com fonte de deutério). Foram avaliados os parâmetros de aquecimento, uso de Pd como modificador químico, possibilidade de calibração com soluções aquosas e massa máxima de...

Matrix elimination method for the determination of precious metals in ores using electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry.

Poly(N-(hydroxymethyl)methacrylamide)-1-allyl-2-thiourea) hydrogels, poly(NHMMA-ATU), were synthesized by gamma radiation using (60)Co gamma source in the ternary mixture of NHMMA-ATU-H(2)O. These hydrogels were used for the specific gold, silver, platinum and palladium recovery, pre-concentration and matrix elimination from the solutions containing trace amounts of precious metal ions. Elimina...
