Are There Any Limitations to Spectrophotometry in Epidemiology?
While spectrophotometry is a powerful technique, it does have limitations: - It requires well-maintained equipment and trained personnel. - Interference from other substances in the sample can affect accuracy. - Some analytes may require specific wavelengths of light for accurate measurement, which may not be available in all spectrophotometers. Despite these limitations, the benefits often outweigh the drawbacks, making it a widely used method in epidemiological research.
