3、omic absorption spectrophotometry.Flameatomic absorption spectrophotometry is simple,rapid,andapplicable to a large number of elements in drinking water,surface waters,and domestic and industrial wastes.Whilesome waters may be analyzed directly,others will requirepretreatment.1.2 Detection limits,se
4、nsitivity,and optimum ranges of theelements will vary with the various makes and models ofsatisfactory atomic absorption spectrometers.The actual con-centration ranges measurable by direct aspiration are given inthe specific test method for each element of interest.In themajority of instances the co
5、ncentration range may be extendedlower by use of electrothermal atomization and converselyextended upwards by using a less sensitive wavelength orrotating the burner head.Detection limits by direct aspirationmay also be extended through sample concentration,solventextraction techniques,or both.Where
6、 direct aspiration atomicabsorption techniques do not provide adequate sensitivity,theanalyst is referred to Practice D3919 or specialized proceduressuch as the gaseous hydride method for arsenic(Test MethodsD2972)and selenium(Test Methods D3859),and the coldvapor technique for mercury(Test Method D
