Cf. Wang et al., ELEMENTAL DETERMINATION OF AIRBORNE PARTICULATE MATTER BY XRF, Journal of radioanalytical and nuclear chemistry, 211(2), 1996, pp. 317-331
Multielement determination of airborne particulates collected on PTFE-
membrane filters by XRF, and possibility of using this technique in Re
ceptor Model analysis were investigated. In order to keep the backgrou
nd interference as low as possible, special emphasis was therefore lai
d on the setup of optimized analytical procedures for XRF measurement.
An intercomparison between INAA and XRF methods was performed by anal
yzing the same filter samples.
