Springer Solid Sample Analysis: Direct and Slurry Sampling using GF-AAS and ETV-ICP

The direct determination of elements in solid samples by atomspectrometric methods without prior digestion is in many cases more efficient and reliable, faster, easier, more cost-effective and less time-consuming than other methods. In this first book on the topic the authors describe concisely all instrumental and methodological features, including calibration, influences from the matrix or sample inhomogeneities, optimization, data analysis and measurement uncertainty. Special chapters deal with Gf-Aas, slurry injection, Etv-Icp-Aes/Ms coupling. The authors' aim to deliver all their experience in a way that enables the spectroscopists to develop their own solid sampling based methods makes this book an unvaluable source for Aas- and Aes-practitioners.
