Event Overview:
In today’s fast-paced analytical environment, laboratories conducting trace-elemental analyses require high-performance instrumentation capable of delivering accurate and reproducible results, even at low concentrations. During this webcast, you will learn about some of the unique ways in which multi-quadrupole inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) technology eliminates interferences, improves long-term stability, and lowers routine maintenance requirements. You’ll discover why this innovative technology is able to not only control the ions which enter the cell but also control the reactions within the cell, thereby eliminating false positives in your data. You’ll also be able to see working examples of this unique analytical solution in some of the most challenging matrices and applications. Specific examples of geological samples prepared by a fusion technique, analysis of impurities in high-purity copper, and high-purity rare earth elements will be discussed.
Key Learning Objectives:
- The unique advantages of an active cell in comparison to passive cells in terms of interference removal capabilities
- How a quadrupole ion deflector design can benefit long-term stability as well as act as an extra stage of mass filtration
- Key application areas to be discussed that benefit from multi-quadrupole technology: geochemistry and metallurgy in terms of impurities

This column shows that a Raman plate reader paired with partial least squares regression can simultaneously quantify glucose, fructose, sucrose, and ethanol in yeast fermentation samples, using turbidity-matched calibration standards to correct for yeast-induced turbidity, and offers a rapid, label-free, high-throughput method for tracking sugar consumption and ethanol production in strain screening, media optimization, and process development.
This column, the second installment on highly substituted benzene rings, shows that tri- and tetra-substituted substitution patterns can be distinguished by whether the ring bending peak is present and by the position of the in-phase aryl C-H wagging peak, which shifts according to how many adjacent hydrogens the ring carries.
