Microchimica Acta Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

A simple scheme is described for extraction from the surface of metals and alloys of minute amounts of material in a state suitable for direct electrophoretic separation and analysis. The techniques of electrophoretic separation and of identification of the metals after separation are discussed with reference to examples and illustrations. The technique is suited for the investigation of very small particles of metals and alloys.

Zusammenfassung

Ein einfaches Verfahren zur Ablösung außerordentlich kleiner Materialmengen von der Oberfläche von Metallen und Legierungen, die in der Form kleiner Teilchen vorliegen können, wird beschrieben. Trennung durch Elektrophorese und Nachweis der Metalle nach elektrophoretischer Trennung werden unter Hinweis auf Beispiele besprochen.

Résumé

Description d'un procédé simple permettant de détacher de la surface de métaux et d'alliages des quantités de substances extraordinairement faibles y adhérant sous forme de petites particules. Les auteurs donnent quelques indications relatives à des exemples concernant la séparation de métaux par électrophorèse et leur identification après séparation électrophorétique.
