ICP-MS  

Definition

  • Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) is one of the fastest growing inorganic analytical technologies of the 21st Century. Newly developed Time of Flight instrumentation is augmenting more traditional quadruple and magnetic sector based instrumentation. Laser ablation, graphite furnace, liquid and gas chromatographic interfacing has facilitated the analysis of a significantly increased variety of sample types, enabling the determination of up to sixty elements in samples as small as 10 micro-meters in diameter and improved the resolution and detection limits of organo-metallic species analysis in such matrices as foodstuffs, water, sediment and environmental samples.
