	abstract = {The arsenic species present in the muscle and the gonad of scallops collected near Newfoundland were characterized by using high performance liquid chromatography-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (HPLC-ICP-MS). The adductor muscle of the scallops (2.1-9.4 mu g As g(-1)) contains arsenobetaine (AsB) as the major water-soluble arsenic compound. The gonads of the scallops (7.3-44.1 mu g As g(-1)) contain dimethylarsinoylriboside derivatives as the major arsenic compound, as well as lower amounts of AsB. No inorganic arsenic species was detected in the sample extracts indicating that consumption of the scallops poses little human risk. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.},

	abstract = {The sensitivity of all ion trap mass spectrometry (ITMS) methods is dependent on the trapping efficiency of the instrument. For ITMS instruments utilizing external ion sources, such as laser desorption, trapping efficiency is known to depend on the phase and amplitude of the radio frequency (RF) potential applied to the ring electrode at the time of ion introduction. It is remarkable that, in a considerable body of literature, no consensus exists regarding the effects of these parameters on the efficacy of trapping externally generated ions, In this paper, a summary of the literature is presented in order to highlight significant discrepancies. New laser desorption ion trap mass spectrometry (LD-ITMS) data are also presented, from which conclusions are drawn in our effort to clarify some of the confusion.

	abstract = {A simple and robust method for the separation and quantification of epinephrine in dental anesthetic solutions was developed. The method allows the direct injection of high salt solutions without Sample pre-treatment. Large sample plugs (5.7\% of the total capillary length) are used for epinephrine determination by selective analyte focusing in capillary electrophoresis, The concentration detection limit for epinephrine is about 5.0 x 10(-7) M (90 ng ml(-1)) with a commercial UV detector. The separation protocol was validated in terms of its precision, linearity, accuracy and specificity.},

	abstract = {Analysis of the total antimony in plant material was unsuccessful using the electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) conditions recommended by the instrument manufacturer. For this reason, an optimisation procedure utilising the Plackett-Burman method, simplex optimisation and visualisation of the generated response surface via principal components analysis, was carried out. The Plackett-Burman method was used to eliminate four of the initial variables chosen. Four variables (atomisation temperature, atomisation time, ash temperature and modifier concentration) were subsequently optimised using the composite modified simplex method and the results were visualised as a contour diagram, after reduction to two principal components. The optimised conditions were used for the analysis of both an acid digested pine needle standard reference material (NIST 1575) and a pond weed sample, collected from a contaminated site at Yellowknife Bay, Yellowknife, NWT, Canada. The total concentration of antimony present in the pine needles was statistically indistinguishable from the non-certified value, as was the value for the pond weed sample, compared with a value determined by neutron activation analysis (NAA). The results for the analysis of the pond weed sample by ETAAS agreed with those obtained from a subsequent analysis by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.},

	abstract = {Comparisons have been made between three types of glow discharge with regard to analytical performance. These glow discharge types include a Grimm-type glow discharge, a jet-assisted glow discharge viewed axially to the jet-assisted plasma plume and the same discharge viewed laterally 25 mm from the sample surface where its characteristics are sufficiently different to warrant re-classification. The axially viewed, jet-assisted glow discharge provides the highest detection power, but laterally viewing allows the potential for greater dynamic range, greater freedom from spectral interferences and a detection power comparable to the Grimm-type glow discharge. This makes lateral viewing of the jet-assisted plasma plume attractive for simultaneous multi-element applications.},
