Inductive Couple Plasma - Tandem Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS/MS) & Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)

RLAB ICPMS 3

ICP-MS/MS or Inductive Coupled Plasma - Tandem Mass Spectroscopy is an instrument to identify trace elements in liquid samples at the part per trillion (ppt) level. Samples are digested into a liquid state before the analysis. A minimum of 1gm samples are needed for the analysis. The attached MS-MS accessory empowers the system to analyze samples precisely. In addition, the system is also equipped with LC-MS/MS system to extend the function of detecting trace organic samples. Generally, we accept various samples such as archaeology, geochemistry, chemical substance, or any materials.

Accessories:

  1. iCAP Triple Quadropole (ICP-MS/MS)
  2. UltraWAVE Microwave Digestion System
  3. High Performance Liquid Dilution System (HPLD)
  4. LC-MS/MS (Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry)
