Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
A new procedure for Co determination in a complex matrix (coal fly ash) by slurry extraction-electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) is presented. Fractional experimental designs were applied to find the most important variables affecting Co extraction. Two liquid media (HCl + HNO 3 and HF) and three agitation modes (ultrasonic probe, ultrasonic bath and manual shaking) were assayed. HF revealed as the most suitable medium for Co extraction, being its concentration and time of contact the most significant variables. Quantitative extraction was obtained after their optimisation (16%, v/v HF; 5 min), with good accuracy (coal fly ash SRM 1633a and SRM 1633b) and precision (R.S.D. < 11.5%). The limit of detection of the method was 0.02 μg g −1 (100 mg mL −1 slurry), and the characteristic mass was 15 ± 1 pg. The ‘slurry-extraction procedure’ established is simple, fast, cheap and was also validated for soil and sediment analysis. As far as we know, a slurry-extraction procedure has not yet been applied to quantify cobalt by ETAAS in such matrices. Moreover, nine coal fly ashes, 12 sediments and 18 soils were analysed by the proposed method and also by a direct slurry sampling-ETAAS procedure in order to compare their performance. In general, the HF-extraction slurry procedure revealed superior.
