要旨

This is the second Update covering Inorganic MS and XRF exclusively. The ICP-MS and XRF sections cover a full year and are based upon comprehensive abstracts. The sections other than ICP-MS in Inorganic MS are less well covered but should be fully abstracted during the coming year in readiness for the 1990 ASU. In the Inorganic MS field an increasing interest in the environmental field, particularly on radionuclide pollution, is evident. This trend seems certain to continue in an increasingly Green, post-Chernobyl Europe. In ICP-MS, the increasing popularity of the technique is clear and much attention has turned to solution of problems surrounding introduction of “real world” samples. Slurry nebulisation and ETV techniques show promise in this area. In XRF, the main instrumental developments in the review period centre around the use of synchroton radiation (SR). The use of SR in conjunction with the increasingly popular techniques of X-ray microfluorescence (XRMF) and total reflection XRF (TXRF) is particularly interesting. A wide application base continues to be developed, with notable interest evident in speciation and workplace monitoring.

The Journal of Analytical Atomic Spectrometry (JAAS) is the central journal for publishing innovative research on fundamentals, instrumentation, and methods in the determination, speciation and isotopic analysis of (trace) elements within all fields of application. This includes, but is not restricted to, the most recent progress, developments and achievements in all forms of atomic and elemental detection, isotope ratio determination, molecular analysis, plasma-based analysis and X-ray techniques. The journal welcomes full papers, communications, technical notes, critical and tutorial review articles, editorials, and comments, in addition to the Atomic Spectrometry Updates (ASU) literature reviews that are prepared by an expert panel. Submissions are welcome in the following areas, but note this list reflects the current scope and authors are strongly encouraged to contact the Editorial team if they believe that their work offers potentially new and emerging research relevant to the journal remit: Fundamental studies in the following. New and existing sources for atomic emission, absorption, fluorescence and mass spectrometry and those that provide both atomic and molecular information Sample introduction techniques for solids, liquids, gases Improvements in sensitivity, selectivity, precision, accuracy and/or robustness Isotope ratio measurements, including techniques for improving precision and mass bias correction Single channel and multichannel simultaneous detection systems Chemometrics, statistics, calibration techniques and internal standardisation Theoretical and numerical modelling of fundamental processes related to all of the above methodologies Novel or improved methodologies in areas of application including, but not limited to the following. Biosciences, including elemental, speciation and isotopic analysis in biological systems, immunoassays based on metal-labeled antibodies, bio-imaging, and nanoparticle toxicology Geochemistry Environmental science Materials science, including engineered nanoparticles and quantum dots Metrology, including reference materials Forensic analysis Food and agricultural sciences Energy Archaeometry Molecular analysis. Molecular sources for elemental and isotopic analysis Atomic sources for molecular analysis Atomic and molecular techniques simultaneously used for complementary chemical information All contributions are judged on originality and quality of scientific content, and appropriateness of length to content of new science.
