The simplex optimization method has been used successfully a great number of times to
optimize atomic absorption (AAS) methods. Some examples of control variables (factors)
that can be included in an optimization study are:
- Air-to-fuel ratio
- Ashing temperature
- Atomization ramping time
- Atomization temperature
- Cathode lamp currents
- Cell geometry
- Gas flow rates
- Height above the burner head
- Height of the flame
- Modifier concentration
- Ramp to ashing temperature
- Slit width
