Rapid determination of gold in whole blood of arthritis patients using flameless atomic absorption spectrophotometry. 1978

M J Barrett, and R DeFries, and W M Henderson

An assay for gold in whole blood of arthritis patients was developed using the graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotometer. This method involves no pretreatment of the whole blood except for simple dilution, thereby eliminating some variables and saving laboratory time and expense.
