Abstract:
ICP-MS is a well-established technique for the analysis of the trace elements in a wide range of samples, although many laboratories analysing petrochemical and industrial samples favour ICP-OES due to the matrix robustness of the technique. ICP-OES is for many analytes often less sensitive and can suffer from complex spectral interferences leading to limitations in analytical performance. Recent advances in ICP-MS technology address these challenges. The latest ICP-MS systems have the capability to analyse high matrix containing samples and organic samples such as petroleums whilst maintaining sensitivity and have the ability to resolve complex interferences ensuring accurate sample analysis. This presentation will present these recent advances in ICP-MS.
