An analytical procedure was derived to provide an accurate measurement of low lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) concentrations in soil extracts using graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS). Based on peak area measurements and with background correction, the use of 2% phosphoric acid as chemical modifier enables the GFAAS to give measurements of Pb and Cd concentration as low as 3 fLg ...

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires the determination of important trace elements in a variety of environmental samples. Graphite furnace atomic absorption methods are recommended for some elements including As, Se, Cd, Pb, Tl, Sb, Ag, Be and Cr. Graphite furnace analyses can be difficult due to chemical and spectral interferences. Quantification in atomic absorptio...

Abstract 52 coal ash samples from individual households were analyzed to determine the pH and concentrations of four toxic elements: arsenic, cadmium, lead thallium. The method used was atomic absorption spectrometry with graphite-furnace atomization. originated various grades statistical analysis showed existing correlations between studied elements, grades. maximum thallium 50,900, 43,500, 12...

We have observed inaccurate urine arsenic values with the method of isobaric fractionation, which was designed to correct for the 40Ar35Cl interference with 75As quantitation by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Isobaric fractionation, which is based on ion intensities at m/z 77 and 82, consistently underestimates the 40Ar35Cl interference and overestimates urine arsenic. We present...
