TL;DR: A survey of detection limits currently obtainable by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry is given in this article, where the significance and limitation of certain instrumental variables are evaluated in light of recent developments in this field with examples taken from different parts of the wavelength range.
Abstract: A survey is given of detection limits currently obtainable by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry. The significance and limitation of certain instrumental variables are evaluated in the light of recent developments in this field with examples taken from different parts of the wavelength range. Mention is made of possible future trends in instrumentation and their likely effect on detection limits discussed.

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for reducing the backstreaming of vapours from rotary vacuum pump oils caused contamination by the absorption of sulphur-containing compounds by the surface of powder specimens.
Abstract: The determination of light elements by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry requires minimal absorption in the X-ray path. This is usually achieved by evacuation of the spectrometer with a rotary vacuum pump. Backstreaming of vapours from rotary vacuum pump oils causes contamination by the absorption of sulphur-containing compounds by the surface of powder specimens. A method is described for greatly decreasing this contamination by preparing powder specimens with a thin plastic film over the surface to be analysed.

TL;DR: In this paper, chromium is added to chromatographic paper discs and analyzed by x-ray fluorescence spectrometry, which is best in the concentration range 5-400 p.p.m.
Abstract: The method involves the addition of chromium as an internal standard and requires no other chemical pretreatment. Samples are spotted directly onto chromatographic paper discs and analyzed by x-ray fluorescence spectrometry. The method is rapid, and is best in the concentration range 5–400 p.p.m.
