Atomic Absorption: Technology

Sample

Sample is heated to produce atoms

Atoms are excited by light

Different lamp for each element

(some multi-element lamps)

Energy absorbed by atom excitation is

measured

Quantitation is done by standard curve

Principal:

Samples are volatized by heat. Elements in a sample are measured by

light absorption. Each atom has a unique light absorption signature.

Agilent’s Fast Sequential Flame Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy

• 10 elements in < 2 minutesIncrease

Productivity

• Reduces gas and sample consumption

Reduce Running Costs

• >0.9 Abs for 5 mg/L CuHigh Sensitivity

Fast Sequential AA Vs Conventional

Using Fast Sequential mode, samples are only aspirated once, with all elements being measured

before the next sample is aspirated

Conventional AA determines only one element from each sample aspiration, so samples are

analyzed time and time again during a multi-element sequence

How Fast Sequential Works

All lamps operated simultaneously

• Eliminates lamp warm-up delays

Fast lamp selection using motor

driven mirror

High speed wavelength drive

• 2000mm/sec speed

Instantaneous gas flow changes

• All elements measured under optimum conditions

SpectrAA software optimizes

measurement time
