Introduction
18 Agilent Graphite Tube Atomizer GTA 120 User’s Guide
Working Environment
Graphite tube atomization is a microanalytical technique which
demands a particularly high standard of care in all activities to
ensure good precision and accuracy of the analytical result. Strict
cleanliness is essential in all laboratory procedures — contamination
must be avoided. Ideally, your laboratory should be air-conditioned
and draught-free. All sample preparation should be carried out in an
area which is well separated from the instrument.
