Atomic spectrometric techniques and ICP-MS are frequently used in trace element analysis in many laboratories. For those using them, or utilizing the analysis results obtained, it is essential to understand about the instrumental methods involved. Spectrochemical Analysis by Atomic Absorption and Emission provides this knowledge, by describing both the theory of atomic spectroscopy and all the major atomic spectrometric techniques (AAS, Flame-AES, Plasma AES, AFS, and ICP-MS), including basic concepts, instrumentation and applications. Chapters also cover: * Sample preparation methods * Instrument components * Hyphenated analysis techniques. Revised and fully updated, the book continues to be highly practical and wide in scope and contains illustrations which aid understanding. Spectrochemical Analysis by Atomic Absorption and Emission is ideal for students and their lecturers, but will also be useful for practitioners who already use the techniques but would like to know more about the insides of the 'black box'.
