What is Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS)?

Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry is an advanced analytical technique that combines the principles of inductively coupled plasmas with high-resolution mass spectrometry. This synergy allows for the detection and quantification of trace elements in a wide range of samples, from environmental matrices to pharmaceuticals. ICP-MS operates by ionizing sample materials using a high-energy plasma, which is then separated based on their mass-to-charge ratio.

Why is Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) Essential for Businesses?

In todays fast-paced business environment, accuracy, precision, and speed are crucial factors in maintaining competitiveness. ICP-MS addresses these needs by offering a range of benefits that cater to diverse industries
