Specifies a graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometric method for the determination of aluminium in human serum or plasma in the range 0.4 µmol/L to 6.0 µmol/L. A method for determining the contaminant aluminium levels of collection materials and a procedure for the collection of blood are appended.
Scope
This Standard sets out a graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometric method for the determination of aluminium in plasma or serum. This method is applicable to the determination of aluminium in the range 0.4 mmol/L to 6 mmol/L.
NOTES
1 This assay is an intricate procedure and therefore should be carried out by an analyst who has experience with the performance characteristics of both the chemistry of the method and the analytical instrument used.
2 The precision and accuracy of this determination is particularly sensitive to the presence of aluminium within the work space and on personnel within the workplace.
