Determination of trace elements in organic material by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry

  • Published:
Microchimica Acta Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

For purposes of trace element analysis of organic materials a combined analytical procedure is tested. It consists of a pressure decomposition by nitric acid at 220° C in quartz vessels. The measurements are performed in the diluted digests by inductively coupled plasma/mass spectrometry. Analytical figures of merit are given.
