Atomic spectrometry update: review of advances in atomic spectrometry and related techniques

Abstract

This review covers advances in atomic spectrometric techniques, including atomic emission, absorption, fluorescence and mass spectrometry. Material on speciation and coupled techniques is not covered as this is included in a separate ASU review.

Atomic Spectrometry Update: review of advances in elemental speciation

“…This latest update adds to that from last year 1 and complements the five other annual Atomic Spectrometry Updates, advances in environmental analysis, 2 advances in the analysis of clinical and biological materials, foods and beverages, 3 advances in atomic spectrometry and related techniques, 4 advances in X-ray fluorescence spectrometry and its special applications 5 and advances in the analysis of metals, chemicals and materials. 6…”

Atomic spectrometry update: review of advances in the analysis of clinical and biological materials, foods and beverages

“…1 Reviews This latest update adds to that from last year 1 and complements other reviews of analytical techniques in the series of Atomic Spectrometry Updates from the previous year. [2][3][4][5][6] Reecting the considerable interest in nanoparticles, which we have featured in previous ASUs, Galazzi et al 7 reported the application of spICP-MS, scICP-MS, LA-ICP-MS, LC-ICP-MS and FFF-ICP-MS to studies of NP biotransformation, aggregation or agglomeration, interactions with biomolecules, and the impact of these events on potential toxicity. Their review described applications of these techniques to a wide variety of clinical and plant investigations, rather than any discussion of the instrumentation involved.…”

Atomic spectrometry update: review of advances in atomic spectrometry and related techniques

“…It should be read in conjunction with the previous review 1 and the other related reviews in the series. [2][3][4][5][6] A critical approach to the selection of material has been adopted, with only novel developments in instrumentation, techniques and methodology being included.…”
