Variations on the dithizone, flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS), tantalum boat AAS, extraction/aspiration, and graphite furnace AAS methods of determining lead in blood and cadmium and lead on filters were studied. The variables included type and amount of acid, ashing procedure, size of aliquot, and time. Accuracy was acceptable in all cases. Tantalum boat AAS showed wide variability and is unsuitable for use in routine analysis.
