extensive distribution of hazardous substances in food chain and the deleterious effect of their residues on public health are a great concern of the society. chicken eggs, as one of the most popular food commodities, in different parts of tehran (iran) were analyzed for two groups of hazardous substances including some organochlorine pesticides (oc) such as aldrin, lindane, dieldrin, dichlorod...

Background: Dental clinics are known to be one of the largest users of Toxic inorganic mercury. It is well documented that dentists and dental assistants who work with amalgam are chronically exposed to mercury vapor. This study investigates exposure to mercury vapor in a dental clinic. Methods: GBC cold vapor atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS), using sodium borohydride as the reducing age...

Atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) is an analytical technique that Below Figure 1 is a block diagram of the major components of an atomic absorption. ATOMIC ABSORPTION SPECTROSCOPY TARANPREET SINGH MS12044 Chem. or Computer Schematic diagram of Atomic absorption spectrometer LINE. the flame atomic absorption photometry shows the presence of Ca, Cd, Co, Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, Pb and Fig. 2. Schematic...

We analyze the application of optical molasses to a thermal vapor cell to make and collect cold atoms. Such an arrangement would simplify the production of cold atoms by eliminating the difficulty of first having to produce and slow an atomic beam. We present the results of our calculations, computer models, and experimental work. As a guide for future work, general results are given to illustr...

in this study mercury was determined in canned tuna fish produced and distributed in iran after digestion by the standard methods of aoac. mercury contents in fish and canned tuna fish were determined by cold vapor atomic absorption spectrophotometry. the metal contents expressed in mg/kg wet weight for mercury varied from 0.017 to 0.394 (average of 0. 089) and 0.023 to 0.529 (average of 0.146)...

Combined magnetically induced circular dichroism and Faraday rotation of an atomic vapor are used to develop a variant of the dichroic atomic vapor laser lock that eliminates lock sensitivity to temperature fluctuations of the cell. Operating conditions that eliminate first-order sensitivity to temperature fluctuations can be determined by low-frequency temperature modulation. This temperature-...

The preconcentration of Hg through MDSPE and cold vapor (CV) resulted in an excellent LOD.

Recently atomic magnetometers are one of the best tools in biomagnetic measurement such as magnetic field of brain and heart. In this paper, the technology of optically pumped atomic magnetometer based on circularly polarized light absorption pumping is described. We have been investigated a new method for measuring polarization effect in an alkali vapor based on polarized light transmission. I...
