Visiting a placement student at the Institute of Oceanography many years ago, I was fascinated to see graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS) in action, monitoring ultratrace levels of metals in seawater. Since then, the faster, more versatile plasma emission techniques, such as inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), have become predominant in multi-element analysis. When a plasma torch is used as an ion source for mass spectrometry ...
