| Abstract | A method is described for the direct determination of cadmium in undiluted sea water by graphite-furnace atomic absorption spectrometry. The addition of EDTA ( 1 mg ml-1) reduces the temperature of atomization of cadmium to far below that of volatilization of other matrix components. The need for very careful temperature control and accurate background compensation is thus minimized. Sea water was analyzed by the method of standard additions. A detection limit of 0.01 μg l-1, a sensitivity of 0.034 μg l-1 and a precision of ±10% at the 0.05 μg l-1 level were obtained for 20-μl injections. |
