Description/Abstract | The progressive degradation of the pyrolytic graphite surface of atomizers provides variable and misleading results of molybdenum peak-height measurements.^The changes in the peak shapes produce no analytical problems during the lifetime of the atomizer (approx.300 firings) when integrated absorbance (A.s signals) is considered and the possible base-line drifts are controlled.^This was demonstrated on plant samples mineralized by simple digestion with a mixture of HNO/sub 3/ and H/sub 2/O/sub 2/.^The value of this method was assessed by comparison with a standard dry oxidation method and by molybdenum determination in National Bureau of Standards reference plant samples.^The relative standard deviations (n = 5) of the full analytical procedure do not exceed 7%.^13 references, 3 figures, 3 tables. |
