Preferred Label : minimum consumption time;
Detailed label : minimum consumption time in flame emission and absorption spectrometry, tmin;
IUPAC definition : The time during which nebulization must be carried out in order to perform one analysis
with a given precision. The minimum consumption time is equal to the minimum volume
consumed of the prepared sample divided by the rate of fluid consumption in order
to obtain a given precision. It can be reduced by means of integrating the signal
or measuring the signal increments (kinetic methods).;
