An on-line trace enrichment (TE) system, based on high pressure
liquid chromatogroaphy (HPLC) and flame atomic absorption (AA), has
been developed for trace metal analysis. The sample is pumped through
a column filled with a cation exchange resin which traps metal ions.
The ions are subsequently stripped from the column...
An automated on-line ion exchange trace enrichment system has
been developed to improve the detection limits of flame atomic
absorption (AA) spectrophotometry in the determination of trace
metals in natural waters. The sample solution is passed through a
column of Chelex-100 chelating resin by a carrier buffer stream
delivered from...
