Atomic absorption spectrometry is used commonly for elemental analysis.Some tests have to be conducted for this where the results are repititive like particle size,molecular structure etc.Which minimal tests have to be conducted which can give maximum results.
Hai jyoti,
if u want to know the presence of multiple elements in u r sample, i suggest ICP-MS
Thank you Durga Panchumurti.Can you please elaborate as how ICP-MS will be more beneficial it will be very helpful.
you can identify most of the elements present in your sample in the ppt levels including isotopic data.
Thank you Rabiu and Durga the answers are a real help and helping in the right direction
NAA was a good technique in the 70s. Since it is not a laboratory technique but requires a facility (reactor) it is today only seldom be used and if used only for comparison ! Anyhow, it is not a routine technique that can be recommneded for daily work !!
X- ray spectrometry is a good technique for multielemental analysis plants and pharmaceuticals. You can use x-ray spectrometry with x-ray tube or radionuclide source.
