Applications of a slotted quartz tube and flame atomic-absorption spectrometry to the analysis of biological samples
Alistair A. Brown,Andrew Taylor +1 more
TL;DR: A slotted quartz tube used with an air-acetylene flame increases the residence time of atoms in the light path of an atomic-absorption spectrometer, thus increasing the analytical sensitivity, and the measurement of metals in urine was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of copper and zinc in serum and urine by use of a slotted quartz tube and flame atomic-absorption spectrometry
Alistair A. Brown,Andrew Taylor +1 more
TL;DR: The use of a slotted quartz tube in flame atomic-absorption spectrometry increases the sensitivity for various elements, including copper and zinc, and the method has been shown to be inappropriate for the determination of normal levels of copper in urine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of a slotted quartz tube to enhance the sensitivity of conventional flame atomic-absorption spectrometry
TL;DR: In this paper, a commercially available slotted quartz tube was used to increase the sensitivity of a flame atomic-absorption technique for the determination of trace metals such as cadmium, lead, copper and zinc.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simple and rapid procedure for the determination of lead in whole blood by use of a slotted tube and discrete nebulisation flame atomic-absorption spectrometry

Journal ArticleDOI
Electrochemistry and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) of adsorbed chromium–bipyridyl complexes†
TL;DR: In situ surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) of the aquahydroxo and dimer complexes shows a broad, intense Cr-O vibration at around 550 cm-1. This arises as the exciting line (514.5 nm) is close to resonance with the lowest energy absorption band assigned to a ligand field transition as discussed by the authors.
