spectroanalytical method for qualitative determination and quantitative evaluation of element concentrations wherein the technique determines these concentrations by measuring the atomic absorption of free atoms
Aatomabsorptsioonspektromeetria (AAS) on üks laialdasemalt kasutatavaid metallide kvantitatiivse määramise meetodeid. AAS meetodi korral kasutatakse erinevaid atomisaatoreid, levinuim nendest on leek, mille puhul räägitakse leek-AAS (FAAS) meetodist.
The technique of analysis by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) falls into two main categories, according to the method of atomization, viz. flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) and electrothermal atomic absorption (ETAAS).
