Description
Summary:This review of 177 references covers developments in 'Atomic Spectrometry' published in the twelve months from December 2022 to November 2023 inclusive. It covers atomic emission, absorption, fluorescence and mass spectrometry, but excludes material on speciation and coupled techniques which is included in a separate review. It should be read in conjunction with the previous review 1 and the other related reviews in the series. 2-6 A critical approach to the selection of material has been adopted, with only novel developments in instrumentation, techniques and methodology being included. The integration of chip-based sample preparation and sample introduction devices has become more advanced, pointing the way to more highly automated methods for clinical analysis. Linked with miniaturisation this should also drive the development of field deployable devices. The analysis of nanoparticles and nanomaterials continues to be an important area of research given the topical concerns of these particles in the biosphere. The trend to nano-analysis is also reflected by developments in LA and LIBS analyses: e.g. spatially highly resolved bioimaging, analysis of nanoparticles or isotope ratios at extremely low concentrations and high precision. This review covers advances in atomic spectrometric techniques, including atomic emission, absorption, fluorescence and mass spectrometry. Material on speciation and coupled techniques is not covered as this is included in a separate ASU review.
