Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy

Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS101) introduces participants to precise elemental analysis using atomic absorption techniques. The course covers both flame and graphite furnace methods for measuring metal concentrations in various samples. Participants will learn the principles of AAS, sample preparation, instrument operation, method development, calibration, and troubleshooting. Emphasis is placed on practical applications to ensure accurate and reliable results in laboratory settings.

Course Objectives

☑ Understand the principles and components of Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy
☑ Learn flame and graphite furnace techniques for metal analysis
☑ Perform sample preparation, calibration, and instrument operation
☑ Troubleshoot common issues and ensure data accuracy
