A method to determine the iron and steels employing a Direct Reading Atomic Emission Spectrometer was investigated. Matrix effect was removed by two correction methods which utilize linear and curvilinear functions. Although two methods gave different sets of matrix correction coefficients, the analytical results by the two methods gave the same results. The analytical results obtained by the present work were well agreed with those obtained by inductively coupled plasma spectrometry
