Instrument: The Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer 2030 (ICPMS-2030) uses argon to generate plasma for the analysis. The instrument comes with programs that assist the user in developing a method. This technique works well for the analysis of metals and has applications in environmental, food, and pharmaceutical analysis. Analyses can be run for several elements simultaneously using this instrument. Samples should be filtered on a 0.22 µm filter and acidified to 2% with nitric acid before analysis.
