Executive Summary: Direct Analysis of Coastal Seawater for Trace Elements Using ICP-MS
Author(s)PerkinElmer
High-salinity matrices are traditionally difficult to analyze at ultra-trace levels due to matrix interferences, instrument drift, and sample preparation requirements. This article provides insight into innovative features that enable accurate, stable, and contamination-free measurement of trace metals without labor-intensive pre-concentration steps.
