| Abstract | ||||
| Slurry nebulization technique has been applied for elemental analysis of plant leaves by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICPAES). The procedure based on dispersing the sample powder (particle size <32 μm) in a dispersing agent (Triton X-100) in an acidic medium, followed by direct nebulization of the suspension into the ICP. The procedure was applied for the determination of Ba, Cd, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sr, Ti & Zn in fourteen plant leaves samples. Recoveries were determined by comparing the results obtained using slurry nebulization with results for elemental determination using acid digests of the samples. The procedure yields recovery varies between 85.7% to 99.5% for the most elements. | ||||
