Measuring picogram amounts of aluminum in biological tissue by flameless atomic absorption analysis of a chelate

GR LeGendre and AC Alfrey

We describe a flameless atomic absorption method for aluminum determination in ethylenediaminetetraacetate extracts of biological tissues. Picogram quantities can be detected, and the technique appears to be more sensitive than other methods of aluminum determination used for biological samples. The extraction simplifies the method and virtually eliminates contamination with extraneous aluminum during the analysis. The extraction method might be useful for separating various other trace elements from biological tissues before analysis.
