The diagnostic technique Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) has been used to detect the toxic metal collected on the filter. This method allow LIBS to detect metal which has the EPA exposure limit lower than the detection limit of LIBS. The details of the filter analysis with LIBS for toxic metal concentration is described in this paper.
