Techniques that are most commonly used for determining
tin are UV/VIS spectrophotometry (Huang
et al. 1997), X-Ray fluorescence spectrometry (Mino
2006), inductively coupled plasma atomic emission
spectrometry (Perring & Basic-Dvorzak 2002)
and electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry
(Chiba 1987). In this work, we describe determination
of tin by flame atomic absorption spectrometry
in various kinds of canned foods.
