Abstract
In a strictly analytical view the precision of analytical results must be as good as possible. However, if the imprecision reflects the dist ribution of the analyte in the sample, it can provide important inform ation. Examples are given for the influence of trace element heterogen eity on solid sampling graphite furnace AAS data, which are highly rel evant with respect to the original sample.
