The geological MPI-DING references glasses prepared and characterized by Jochum et al. employing several analytical techniques as described in Chapter 6 are recommended to improve possible quantification procedures for in situ microlocal analysis.4,12... 

Examples of applications of X-ray spectrometric analytical techniques to elemental determinations in a variety of materials are presented in Table 2.12. Some recent applications papers may be mentioned. Total reflection XRF has been applied by Xie et al. (1998) to the multielement analysis of Chinese tea (Camellia sinensis), and by Pet-tersson and Olsson (1998) to the trace element analysis of milligram amounts of plankton and periphyton. The review by Morita etal. (1998) on the determination of mercury species in environmental and biological samples includes XRF methods. Alvarez et al. (2000) determined heavy metals in rainwaters by APDC precipitation and energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence. Other papers report on the trace element content of colostrum milk in Brazil by XRF (da Costa etal. 2002) and on the micro-heterogeneity study of trace elements in uses, MPI-DING and NIST glass reference materials by means of synchrotron micro-XRF (Kempenaers etal. 2003).
