Objectives: To optimize the trace element analysis support in the research group by development and employment of the available analytical resources for different projects.

Description: For trace element analysis there are two x-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometers and one graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometer (GF-AAS) available in the research group. The XRF spectrometers are laboratory built and under constant development to optimize their performance both generally and for special applications. The GF-AAS is a commercial spectrometer (Perkin Elmer SIMAA 6000) where optimization has to be done in the sample preparation step.
