Chapter 5 Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry for Element-Selective Detection in Liquid Chromatography

摘要: Publisher Summary The major reasons for the rapid growth of inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (ICP–MS) are its excellent detection limits, uncomplicated mass spectra observed, and capability measurement isotope ratios. applications ICP–MS have involved elemental analysis. analytical capabilities analysis, particularly make it attractive as an element-selective detector chromatography. Combining a chromatographic separation with could provide technique capable distinguishing between different chemical forms elements. In principle, chromatography should also permit ratio measurements individual species tracer studies. Finally, removal interfering matrix elements would extend range application simplify or hasten procedures sample preparation. This chapter discusses recent studies that illustrate ICP–MS. use liquid is emphasized. Some work on gas solvent extraction discussed.
