Evaluation of fundamental parameters method for biological materials and soil analysis by energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry
Hołyńska, B; Muia, Lavi M; Maina, D.M (1987)Two methods of determination of trace elements in plant materials, viz. the fundamental parameters method (FPM) and the empirical method with the use of standard samples, were compared. Hay CRM and fresh tea leaves were ... -
Inorganic element concentrations in near surface aerosols sampled on the northwest slopes of Mount Kenya
Gatari, M.J; Boman, J; Maina, D.M (2001)Eight trace elements, Si, Cl, K, Ca, Ti, Mn, Fe and Zn in the near-ground atmospheric aerosols were evaluated in the northwestern part of Mount Kenya using a dichotomous sampler and an EDXRF spectrometer. The samples were ... -
Space Measurements of near surface aerosols in the central district of Nairobi City, Kenya
Gatari, M.J; Boman, J; Maina, D.M; Pettersson, J.B.C (2005)There have been very few studies in Kenya on aerosols despite the global demand on aerosol ground studies in the perspective of climate and the human well being. Therefore, atmospheric aerosol studies became the basis of ... -
