Atomic Spectroscopy

Abstract

Atomic spectrometry remains one of the most powerful methods for the determination of the elements and their compounds in a wide variety of types of samples and in widely differing concentrations. Innovation in the optical methods atomic absorption, atomic fluorescence, and atomic emission spectrometry mainly with plasma sources as well as in the use of the same sources as ion sources for elemental mass spectrometry continued to be discussed worldwide in well-known international conferences such as the

Evaluation of nanocomposite packaging containing Ag and ZnO on shelf life of fresh orange juice

“…974.27, 2002b) slightly modified by Bings, Bogaerts, and Broekaert (2006) using a graphic furnace atomic absorption spectrometer (AA800, Perkin-Elmer, Shelton, CT) operated at 328.1 and 213.9 nm wavelengths.…”

An overview of recent applications of inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) in determination of inorganic impurities in drugs and pharmaceuticals

“…Atomic spectrometric techniques, viz., AAS, ICP-AES and ICP-MS are widely used for analysis of trace elementals [12,13]. AAS is probably the most extensively used technique for determination of metals in different sample matrices [14].…”

A Pb2+-ion electrochemical biosensor based on single-stranded DNAzyme catalytic beacon

“…Various analytical techniques for Pb 2+ detection have been developed, such as atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) [4,5], atomic emission spectrometry (AES), inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) [6], inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) [7], and X-ray fluorescence spectrometry [8]. However, these traditional analytical methods usually require sophisticated instruments, complicated operation and sample preparation/pretreatment procedures, which limit their wide-spread applications.…”
