Trace and Essential Elements Analysis in Cymbopogon citratus (DC.) Stapf Samples by Graphite Furnace-Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy and Its Health Concern

Elimination of Chemical and Spectral Interferences in Measurement of Trace Elements in Urine and Blood by Combined Electrodeposition-Electrothermal Atomic Absorption Spectrometry

A combined electrodeposition-ETAAS technique has been applied to the analysis of Pb, Cd, Co, Ni, Cr and Mn in biological samples in order to overcome interferences and to minimize sample pretreatment. It requires minimal sample preparation with the electrolysis process aiding partial decomposition of the organic matrix, adequate for the release and deposition of trace elements. In an initia...

Air-assisted Liquid Liquid Microextraction Combined with Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption Spectrometry for Preconcentration and Determination of Trace Amount of Co(II) and Ni(II) Ions in Water Samples

A simple, rapid and efficient method has been developed for the extraction, preconcentration and determination of cobalt (II) and nickel (II) ions in water samples by air-assisted liquid-liquid microextraction (AALLME) coupled with graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS). In the proposed method, much less volume of an organic solvent was used as the extraction solvent in the abs...

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

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 ...

Preconcentration and Determination of Lead for Trace Levels in Water and Wastewater Samples by Vortex-Assisted Microextraction Using TPAS as a New Synthetic Complexing Agent with Electrothermal Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy Detection

A simple and rapid solidified vortex assisted 1-undecanol based liquid-liquid microextraction technique was proposed for preconcentration of trace levels of lead ions. The extraction solvent (1-undecanol) was dispersed into the aqueous samples by the assistance of vortex agitator. 100 µL of 1-undecanol containing ethyl (2Z)-3-[(5-chloro-7-methyl[1,3]thiazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidi...
