2 Elemental Analysis What are you trying to accomplish? Quantification of elemental impurities to validate purity of final product QA/QC to monitor quality, flag contaminated reagents, measure reaction efficiency/completeness 2
3 A Complete Elemental Analysis Portfolio Features include: Single- or multi-element analysis Measurement at concentrations from parts per trillion to percent Low-cost, high-throughput systems Space-saving ergonomic design with low gas consumption SF-ICP-MS Triple Quadrupole ICP-MS AAS ICP-OES Single Quadrupole ICP-MS Measure elemental impurities: Any sample matrix Any concentration OEA 3
4 Why Use an ICP-MS? Many elemental analysis techniques are suitable for measuring: Toxic metals (e.g. As, Cd, Hg, Pb) Impurities (e.g. S, Al, Ni) Essential elements (e.g. Fe, Se) Elemental species or nanoparticles ICP-MS is advantageous: Matrix tolerance robust interface and sample handling systems can significantly increase analysis times between operator intervention Interference removal advances in collision/reaction cell technology providing way to analyze more accurately at lower levels High sensitivity higher detection power enables lower limits of detection More than 9 orders dynamic range enables the analysis of both minors and majors in one analytical run Sensitive enough to determine high precision isotope ratios, speciation concentrations and particle numbers Are there any challenges? 4
5 Interferences Spectral Interferences ICP-MS 2 most common types: isobaric and polyatomic Isobaric Interferences Produced when isotopes from different elements have the same m/z ratio ( 58 Fe on 58 Ni, 204 Hg on 204 Pb) 64 Ni (1% abundant) 64 Zn (49% abundant) Isotopic pattern for Ni Isotopic pattern for Zn 5
6 Interferences Spectral Spectral Interferences ICP-MS 2 most common types: isobaric and polyatomic Polyatomic Interferences Produced when 2 or more isotopes combine to form a species with the same m/z as that of the analyte ion Ar, Air (O, N, C) ArAr, ArO, ArN, ArC, ArH, ArCa, ArNa, ArK, ArMg, ArCl, ClO, NO, CO, CaO, NaO, etc H 2 O, Ca, Na, K, Mg, Cl Products Reaction Reactants 6
