What is the detection limit of ICP-MS?
ICP-MS offers a detection limit in the ppt range, ideal for trace analysis of heavy metals such as thallium, cadmium and other toxic elements in environmental samples and food analysis.
What are the advantages of ICP-MS over ICP-OES?
ICP-MS enables the analysis of isotopes and offers extremely high sensitivity, making it ideal for environmental analysis, food safety testing and trace analysis of toxic elements.
Which chemical elements can be precisely analyzed with ICP-MS?
ICP-MS analyzes almost all chemical elements of the periodic table, including heavy metals such as platinum, palladium, as well as elements in environmental samples, food and materials research.
What is the main disadvantage of ICP-OES over ICP-MS?
The main disadvantage of ICP-OES compared to ICP-MS is the lower sensitivity in the analysis of trace elements and the limited capability for isotope analysis. ICP-MS offers significantly higher precision and better detection limits in these areas.
Why is ICP-MS ideal for trace analysis?
ICP-MS offers the possibility to precisely quantify elements in the nanogram range, making it indispensable for the analysis of minute contaminants in food, water samples and environmental analysis.
What advantages does ICP-MS offer for the analysis of complex samples in materials science?
ICP-MS is characterized by excellent thermal stability, high precision for heavy metals and the ability to reliably analyze a wide range of elements in complex samples such as alloys, semiconductors or geochemical materials.
