title: Determination of lead in human lungs by direct flameless atomic absorption analysis of small tissue samples.
abstract: The direct-atomization technique of flameless atomic absorption spectroscopy has shown to be a useful and accurate method when applied to determination of the concentration of lead in human lung tissue. The analytical results are highly reproducible and agree with those obtained by the conventional flame atomic absorption technique.
