Application of flame photometry in biological samples?
this technique is used for the determination of
sodium
potassium
and lithium (in case of Lithium therapy)
in biological specimens received in laboratories
-
Why transition metal can not be determined by a flame photometry?
Since the temperature isn't high enough to excite transition metals, the method is selective toward detection of alkali and alkali earth metals.
-
What is principle of flame photometry?
Principle of flame photometry Flame photometry relies upon the fact that: · the compounds of the alkali and alkaline earth metals can be thermally dissociated in a flame and· that some of the atoms...

How does lithium serve as an ionization suppressant in flame photometry?
Berry, Chappell & Barnes (1946) showed that, in estimating sodium and potassium by flame photometry, there were definite improvements in precision and accuracy when lithium was added to the samples...
