JAAS News

Everybody love lists and I have been told than JAAS readers are no different. Thus, I decided to make a very short list of recent JAAS papers I enjoyed, just for the sake of discussion. In no particular order, here are five 2012 JAAS papers I recently read and liked:

1. Considerations for measurement of individual nanoparticles or microparticles by ICP-MS: determination of the number of particles and the analyte mass in each particle

John W. Olesik and Patrick J. Gray, J. Anal. At. Spectrom., 2012,27, 1143-1155

2. Graphite tubes with small internal diameters tailored for high-resolution continuum source graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry

Mao Dong Huang, Helmut Becker-Ross, Michael Okruss, Sebastian Geisler and Stefan Florek, J. Anal. At. Spectrom., 2012, 27, 982-988

3. Depth dependent element ratios in fluid inclusion analysis by laser ablation ICP-MS

Marcel Guillong and Thomas Pettke, J. Anal. At. Spectrom., 2012, 27, 505-508

4. Pulsed glow discharge time of flight mass spectrometry for the screening of polymer-based coatings containing brominated flame retardants

Claudia González de Vega, Lara Lobo, Beatriz Fernández, Nerea Bordel, Rosario Pereiro and Alfredo Sanz-Medel, J. Anal. At. Spectrom., 2012, 27, 318-326

5. Improving acquisition times of elemental bio-imaging for quadrupole-based LA-ICP-MS
