Abstract: | The possibility of using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) to determine the elemental composition
of archaeological bones elements was evaluated and discussed. The interferences of the major elements (Ca, P, K, Na, Al and
Fe) on the microelements (Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sr, Zn) were investigated and the appropriate analytical lines were
selected. The role of different nebulizers (cross-flow, Babington and Meinhard) on detection limits were investigated. The
applicability of the proposed procedure was demonstrated analyzing IAEA-SRM-H-5 (Animal bone); and authentic bone sample dating
back to the 4th century BC. These results were compared to ETAAS and ICP-MS. |
