In analytical chemistry labs the practice of elemental analysis is not new. In fact, many of the leading technologies have been in place for decades. Possible techniques include atomic absorption (AA), inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), ICP-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) and X-ray fluorescence (XRF). With considerable overlap in capabilities choosing the right technique can be a challenging task, and more than one method may be able to perform the analysis at the required levels of accuracy and precision.
The editors of Lab Manager are pleased to offer an interactive discussion with industry professionals to assist you in evaluating the relative strengths and weaknesses of the available techniques and introduce you to the latest in instrumentation innovations.
As an attendee, you will learn more about:
- Considerations when selecting equipment for elemental analysis
- Advances in various techniques and instruments
- What techniques are required for various sample types
- What level of expertise is required for various techniques and how to obtain these skills
