E. Curdova et al., EVALUATION OF VARIOUS MINERALIZATION METHODS AND MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUES FOR TRACE-ELEMENT ANALYSIS OF PLANT MATERIALS, Analusis, 26(3), 1998, pp. 116-121
Three decomposition methods (pressurised microwave digestion, classica
l dry ashing and dry ashing in a mixture of oxidising gases) for predo
minantly plant samples, and three measurement techniques (ICP-MS, FAAS
, ETAAS) for the determination of Cd, Cu, Pb and were compared. As con
firmed by the statistical evaluation, no significant differences betwe
en analytical methods were found.
