Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry

Description

The general purpose of the Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometer (ICP-OES) is to perform elemental analysis of liquid samples with organic and/or aqueous matrix. It uses an Ar+ plasma to ionize the atoms and uses the radiation emitted by the ions in the plasma to discriminate the desired analytes. It is a very powerful technique to analyze all type of samples such as environmental samples. It is extremely recommended for samples with high concentration of metals and salts between 10 µg/l and 600 mg/l (depending on the analyte). Our equipment is 5100 ICP-OES from Agilent Technologies.

Key features

  • Dichroic Spectral Combiner (DSC) technology, featured in the Agilent 5100 SVDV ICP-OES, captures the radial and axial views of the plasma.
  • A plug-and-play vertical torch.
  • The VistaChip II detector.
  • Cooled Cone Interface (CCI).
  • Solid state RF system.
  • Intelligent industrial design.
  • Next generation ICP Expert software has a familiar worksheet interface, sophisticated algorithms that deliver accurate reliable results, and easy method development and software applets that include pre-set method templates designed to save you time.
