Hydride Trapping in Quartz Atomizers for Atomic Absorption Spectrometry: Radiotracer Study and Routine Applications

Abstract

The efficiency of the hydride preconcentration step at the quartz surface prior its AAS detection was verified using 205 Bi and 73 As radiotracers. A simple apparatus design based on in-situ trapping of Sb and Bi hydrides in the conventional quartz tube
