| Event Overview |
Conventional single quadrupole ICP-MS instruments with helium mode collision–reaction cells (CRCs) produce acceptable results in the vast majority of routine trace metal or elemental impurity measurements. But data quality can be compromised by the presence of more intense or problematic spectral interferences, especially in cases where low analyte levels combine with complex and variable sample types. In these cases, single quadrupole ICP-MS may be unable to identify or resolve the interferences, leading to uncertainty and errors.
The solution to these analytical challenges is to use a double mass selection approach, known as tandem MS or MS/MS, using a triple quadrupole ICP-MS instrument. MS/MS allows precise control of the interference removal process using reactive cell gases, giving reliable, accurate results for interfered elements. Controlled reaction chemistry simplifies ICP-MS methodology, as the reaction chemistry is independent of the sample matrix or the presence of other analytes. This means that the same analytical conditions can be applied to many different sample types, including those where the sample composition is not known in advance.
The benefits of ICP-QQQ with MS/MS have been widely accepted in industries where data quality is key, as well as proving invaluable in research applications. Now the need for greater certainty and improved data quality is leading to adoption of ICP-QQQ with MS/MS for more typical ICP-MS applications. In this webcast, we’ll discuss examples that explain why.
