摘要
A simple precise procedure for determining the lead content of suspended particulate samples collected from the air uses atomic absorption spectroscopy. It is necessary to utilize the standard additions technique to overcome matrix effects. Analyses of 38 samples collected in the Chicago and Cook County area on March 31, 1966, as a part of the National Air Sampling Network, yielded values from 0.10 to 3.18 μg. of Pb per cubic meter of air. Results obtained by the referee method of polarography showed substantial agreement with atomic absorption values. Possibilities of employing atomic absorption for the determination of other metals found in suspended particulates are currently being investigated. © 1969, American Chemical Society.
