Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES)
One of the primary applications of optical emission spectroscopy based on inductively coupled plasmas (ICP OES) is to analyze elements in very low concentrations. If considering metals such as mercury or metalloids like arsenic, then the reason for these analyses is not hard to understand. Soil sample investigations, foodstuff testing and drinking water analyses are all carried out for the health of people and the environment, but the environmental sector is just one of many important applications for ICP OES. Today, ICP OES plays a crucial role in other fields as well. Trace elements in fuels can cause premature wear on engines. The slightest impurities in metals can compromise the most important properties of those materials. Heavy metals contaminate drinking water for decades. High-frequency tests with low detection limits have therefore become the standard in many fields.
ICP OES takes on this role, superseding other methods of elemental analysis. Short analysis times, low sample preparation effort, multi-element detection and exceptional device sensitivity are hallmarks of this method. The latest generation of ICP OES devices makes elemental analysis even more user-friendly, economical, and flexible.
