Abstract: An electrothermal ZAAS ultramicro method is described for determining serum iron (SI) and total iron binding capacity (TIBC) in 40μl of serum after pretreatment with trichloroacetic acid for elimination of the interference from hemolysis.The results of SIand TIBCobtained by the ultramicro method agree with those by conventional flame FAAS.This method is convenient and accurate, and can be adopted to routine analysis in pediatrics clinic laboratories for large scale surveying of iron deficiency anemia of children.
