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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Precise and efficient analysis methods are essential in an era where food and water safety are critical concerns. One such ...
