Description
With theATI Laboratory Analysis ICP-MS Ultimate, you achieve the highest possible accuracy in all areas through the combination of ICP-OES and ICP-MS, offering the most comprehensive analysis. The ATI Laboratory Analysis Ultimate offers numerous advantages:
-
Higher accuracy and significantly lower detection limits down to ultra-trace levels through ICP-MS (e.g., manganese, selenium, vanadium, arsenic, etc.) element-specific detection is possible down to 0.001 g/l (compared to ICP-OES detection limits of 0.5 3.5 g/l depending on the element).
-
Earlier detection of contaminants: Enables quicker responses to prevent issues from arising.
-
Double-validated results: Many values are measured using both ICP-OES and ICP-MS, and are cross-checked for consistency, ensuring measurement errors are more effectively ruled out.
-
Expanded element portfolio (so-called MS trace elements* and MS contaminants*): Rubidium, neodymium, zirconium, and more.
-
The most suitable measurement method is used for each water parameter for example, bulk elements are measured with ICP-OES, while trace and ultra-trace elements are analyzed with ICP-MS.
With precise measurement from bulk elements to ultra-trace elements, the ATI Laboratory Analysis ICP-MS Ultimate achieves unprecedented accuracy.
