What Does AFS Stand For?
AFS stands for Atomic Fluorescence Spectroscopy
Atomic Fluorescence Spectroscopy (AFS) is an analytical technique used to detect and quantify trace elements in various samples by measuring the fluorescence emitted by atoms when they are excited by a light source. AFS is particularly valued for its high sensitivity and selectivity, making it suitable for applications in environmental monitoring, clinical diagnostics, and quality control in various industries. The method involves the atomization of the sample, followed by the excitation of specific atomic species, allowing for precise elemental analysis at low concentration levels.
