  • Applications of Atomic Spectrometers

    Applications of Atomic Spectrometers

    AA or AE spectrometers have been used in many different industrial and academic settings. For example, a medical laboratory could detect the type and amount of toxic metals that could be present in patient's urine or blood. To do this, a chemist will use certain acids (nitric or hydrochloric) to extract the metallic component of a sample. Atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS), also commonly referred to as atomic absorption spectroscopy, is one of the most widely used analytical techniques for. Spectrometers are not limited to a single type. When an excited atom returns to its ground state, it emits a specific wavelength of radiation.
