Which of the following is not a reason to prefer a graphite furnace?

Higher sample throughput

Far lower detection limits

Very small sample volumes

Ashing away the matrix before measurement

  • A.Ashing away the matrix before measurement
  • B.Higher sample throughput
  • C.Far lower detection limits
  • D.Very small sample volumes

Answer: B

Higher throughput is a flame advantage - a furnace takes a couple of minutes per determination against a few seconds. The other three are its genuine strengths. Trading speed for sensitivity is the choice between the two atomisers, and a laboratory with many straightforward samples will make it the other way from one with few difficult ones.
