Determination of low levels of cadmium in marine and fresh water sediments by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry employing a reduced palladium chloride modifier and by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry

Determination of Metals in Soils

“…Feng and Barratt 246 showed that microwave dissolution of soil and dust samples with nitric-hydrofluoric acid gave recoveries of cadmium (and lead) of over 90% in 30 min digestion. Various other workers [247][248][249][250] have reviewed methods for the determination of cadmium in soils.…”
