An automated system for the determination of lead in blood, manganese in urine and nickel in waste water.
An automated system has been developed to analyze lead in blood, manganese in urine and nickel in waste water at a rate of 20 to 30 samples per hour. The analysis is based on direct chelation without digestion, extraction into methyl isobutyl ketone and flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The applicability of the system in the field of occupational and environmental medicine is discussed.
