Abstract:
This talk will focus on the capabilities and performance of the Radom MICAP-OES 1000 ICP-OES instrument for challenging applications such as oils, fuels and high matrix aqueous samples. The unique capabilities of this microwave plasma coupled to the high resolution simultaneous spectrometer will be demonstrated on a variety of organic and aqueous sample matrices. The small footprint design coupled with its use of N2 to support the ICP source results in a very robust, cost effective and easy to operate tool for measuring trace metal concentrations. A brief discussion on its novel design and operation will be followed by demonstration of its performance on several complex sample types. System stability and accuracy in these challenging applications will be presented.
