Innovative modifications to the Delves cup blood-lead analysis procedure.
The Delves cup technique for blood-lead analysis involves the atomization of lead from a nickel cup into a ceramic tube and analysis by atomic absorption. The method is rapid and sensitive. The efficiency of the method is greatly affected by a few variables which, when controlled, have resulted in improved reproducibility and increased accuracy. The purpose of this paper is to address these variables.
