atomic absorption spectroscopy

What Are the Limitations of AAS?

Despite its advantages, AAS has some limitations:
Limited Elemental Range: AAS is typically limited to the analysis of metals and metalloids, excluding non-metals.
Single Element Analysis: Each analysis typically focuses on one element at a time, which can be time-consuming when analyzing multiple elements.
Matrix Interferences: Complex sample matrices can interfere with the absorption process, necessitating careful calibration and potential use of matrix modifiers.
