The particulate6 are collected on Whatman 41 cellulose filters and decomposed with sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide; bismuth is then measured by hydride generation/atomic absorption spectrometry. The detection limit is 0.08 ng m" if 500 m' of air is filtered through an 11-cm filter. Generally, th

β¦ Synopsis
A sensitive method is described for the determination of mono-, di-and tri-methylarsenic compounds in airborne particulate matter by hydridegeneration and gas-liquid chromatography with atomic absorption spectrometric detection. Interferences of various species are discussed. Absolute detection limits are 70, 80 and 100 pg As, respectively for the mono-, di-and tri-methylarsenic species. Recoveries of methylarsenic compounds added to airborne particulate matter are almost 100%. An iron/nitrate mixture interfered strongly but this was overcome by adding EDTA.

Flameless atomic absorption spectrometry is a sensitive, rapid, selective and precise technique which is very attractive for the routine analysis of small liquid and solid samples. Little pretreatment of the samples is necessary, so that the risk of contamination is small. Recently, this technique h
