Abstract

The use of hydride generation is often useful in environmental analysis. The normal acid sodium tetrahydroborate reaction provides exceptional sensitivity with continuous flow hydride generators. In some situations there are interferences which will mask the sensitivity. An alternative chemistry system is described here and is shown to offer similar sensitivity to that normally used. A commercial continuous flow analyser is used in this work.
