Trace metals
Scientists in LGC 's Health Sciences are
highly skilled in the accurate quantification of elements at trace
levels and in a variety of challenging matrices. Typical studies
range from basic limit tests, as described in the various
pharmacopoeia, to the development of fully validated methods for
the elemental assay of complex biological systems. We develop and
validate methods to be transferred to clients' own laboratories and
we also carry out the analysis for our clients on a routine
basis.
Typical technologies include, but are not limited to:
Sample preparation
- Wet chemical digestion
- Microwave digestion
- Accelerated solvent extraction
- Solid phase microextraction (SPME)
- Fusion.
Quantification
- Inductively Coupled Plasma with Optical
Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES)
- Inductively Coupled Plasma with Mass
Spectrometry (ICP-MS)
Atomic Absorption (AA)
- Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption (GF-AA)
- X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF).
