Flow injection on-line electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry

Today the greatest hindrances to couple the continuous FI system to discrete ETAAS operations have been overcome as demonstrated by the great number of papers published in the last few years. This paper reviews 109 references to the development and expansion of the FI-ETAAS methodology. The selected FI-ETAAS systems, namely: on-line column preconcentration and separation systems; on-line knotted reactor preconcentration systems; on-line aerosol deposition systems; flow-injection for in situ trapping of volatile compounds and miscellaneous on-line systems.
