Preferred Label : Flame Photometry;
NCIt definition : A type of atomic spectroscopy capable of qualitatively or quantitatively determining
certain cations (particularly Na, K, Rb, Cs, Ca, Ba, Cu) by utilizing a low temperature
flame capable of exciting a valence electron to an upper energy state which emits
light at a wavelength unique to each cation as the electron returns to its ground
state.;
Alternative definition : CDISC: A type of atomic spectroscopy that qualitatively or quantitatively measures
select cations (particularly Na, K, Rb, Cs, Ca, Ba, Cu) by utilizing a low temperature
flame capable of exciting a valence electron to an upper energy state which emits
light at a wavelength unique to each cation as the electron returns to its ground
state. (NCI);
