Abstract
A new method for determining the lead content of plants has been developed. The dried, ground sample of a plant is first heated in oxygen to decompose the organic material. The lead is then reduced in hydrogen to elemental lead which sublimes and condenses in a capillary. The sublimed lead is dissolved in nitric acid and the lead concentration is determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy.
