As in ICP-OES, an argon plasma evaporates solvent and vaporizes and atomizes the sample. Plasma conditions are optimized to ionize the sample. The ions are introduced into a mass analyzer which is ...

Inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is undoubtedly the fastest-growing trace element technique available today. Only a handful of instruments were sold when it was commercialized in ...

The unit is equipped with an AS-93 autosampler for large numbers of samples. In ICP-OES a sample in solution is introduced into an 8000K argon plasma. The plasma evaporates the solvent, vaporizes the ...

The Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) facility is run by Heather Grievson and is overseen by the Chemistry Mass Spectrometry Facility (ChemMS) facility manager, Sharon Spey. The facility is part of the ...

These and other sample types are welcomed. Our main analytical tool is a Thermo Finnigan Element2 magnetic sector inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS). We welcome inquiries about ...
