“…For those elements forming volatile hydrides, the use of hydride generation for analysis has gained wide usage due to the improved sensitivities achieved over direct measurement of the dissolved species. The development and application of hydride generation methods for atomic spectroscopic analysis has been recently reviewed (2), and numerous applications of hydride methods have appeared in review articles (3,4). The application of hydride generation for determination of a number of elements was summarized in a recent article (5).…”
