What Does GDAAS Stand For?

GDAAS stands for Glow Discharge Atomic Absorption Spectrometry

GDAAS, or Glow Discharge Atomic Absorption Spectrometry, is an analytical technique used to quantify trace elements in solid samples. This method employs a glow discharge plasma as a source for excitation, allowing for the selective absorption of specific wavelengths of light emitted by the atoms in the sample. GDAAS is particularly valued in material science and environmental monitoring due to its sensitivity, speed, and ability to analyze materials with minimal sample preparation.
