Monitoring of Pd in airborne particulates by solid sampling high-resolution continuum source electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry

Determination of Total Sulfur in Food Samples by Solid Sampling High-Resolution Continuum Source Graphite Furnace Molecular Absorption Spectrometry

“…It was stated that in SS-AAS, even if the amount of analyte in the solid sample is in the linear range of the calibration curve obtained with standard solutions, the linearity is influenced, strictly speaking, decreased, by the amount of sample introduced into the furnace as well. − …”

High-resolution continuum source graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry for direct analysis of solid samples and complex materials: a tutorial review

“…Moreover, in some cases it has been reported that using very high masses can lead to inaccurate results when calibrating vs. aqueous standard solutions, possibly owing to incomplete atomization. 43,44 Also some inaccuracies for very low masses have been reported, although most information on this subject was obtained with older (line source) instrumentation, using much larger graphite platforms or boats. 45 Overall, this is a parameter that needs some optimization within the values presented above to achieve sufficient (but not excessive) sensitivity, minimal matrix effects, sufficient precision and a reasonable tube lifetime.…”

Determination of palladium, platinum and rhodium in used automobile catalysts and active pharmaceutical ingredients using high-resolution continuum source graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry and direct solid sample analysis

“…Despite these possibilities, HR CS GFAAS has not been used for the direct determination of PGMs, with only one exception (determination of Pd in airborne particulates [29]). Therefore, it is the goal of the current paper to investigate the potential of HR CS GFAAS for the direct determination of Pd, Pt and Rh.…”
