Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometer (ICP-OES)

Trade name
Optima 7300DV
Technical description

Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometer model Optima 7300DV (Perkin Elmer).

Plasma can be observed in two directions, in the so-called dual view system (axial and radial). The use of two semiconductor detectors (one for UV, one for Vis) allow for the simultaneous performance of multi-element analyses in a wide range of concentrations with high resistance to difficult sample matrices. Flexible selection of wavelengths.

Research capabilities

ICP-OES is a high sensitive, multi-elemental, accurate and fast technique that is widely used in environmental analysis. It allows to measure the concentration of almost all elements in aqueous solutions. The analysis of solid samples requires their prior preparation, e.g. by microwave digestion.

Measurement capabilities

Depending on the analysed element and the matrix of sample, it is possible to measure concentrations of µg/L. Routinely, the limits of quantification range from several to several hundred µg/L. Details can be found in the scope of accreditation for testing laboratory no. AB 1050.
