In atomic absorption spectroscopy, an AA nebulizer, or AAS nebulizer, converts liquid samples into a fine aerosol mist for introduction into the atomization system. Each Agilent AA nebulizer is engineered for optimal aerosol generation, ensuring high sensitivity and precision. Metals include Fe, Cu, Al, Pb, Ca, Zn, Cd and many more. Typical concentrations range in the low mg/L (ppm) range. This product is not. Guystav Kirchoff and Robert Bunsen first used atomic absorption—along with atomic emission—in 1859 and 1860 as a means for identify atoms in flames and hot gases. Although atomic emission continued to develop as an analytical technique, progress in atomic absorption languished for almost a century.
