George L. Donati
Spectrochemical analysis researcher with experience in atomic spectrometry, analytical instrumentation and sample preparation for trace element analysis.
Specific topics of research and professional experience:
Calibration methods to improve the efficiency of spectrochemical analysis (e.g. MEC, MICal, MSC, SDA)
Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS)
Multivariate analysis and machine learning, combined with atomic spectrometry, to study and diagnose diseases (e.g. diabetes mellitus, urinary tract infection, etc)
Inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP OES)
Microwave-induced plasma optical emission spectrometry (MIP OES)
Microwave-assisted sample preparation for spectrochemical analysis
Tungsten coil atomic spectrometry (absorption, emission and fluorescence)
Thermospray flame furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (TS-FF-AAS)
