Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometers

Atomic absorption spectrophotometers are used to determine the concentration of specific elements within a sample by measuring the amount of light absorbed by the atoms of that element when excited by a specific wavelength of light. This makes it a valuable tool for analyzing trace metals in various fields like environmental monitoring, food testing, clinical research, and industrial quality control. These capabilities therefore allow scientists to quantify the presence of individual elements in a solution by analyzing their unique absorption patterns.
