1 INTRODUCTION

Environmental and geochemical sciences were the first main fields of application of ICP-MS in the early 80's. (funding of the US research by the Environmental Protection Agency and UK funding by the British Geological Survey)1

Now, more than 20 years after the first publication on ICP-MS, environmental science represents still 1/3 of the studies as published in scientific journals and shows an increasing trend together with biomedical applications. The recent 'Atomic Spectrometry Update: Environmental Analysis'...

Products & Services
Laboratory and Calibration Gases
Laboratory and calibration gases are specialized for use as laboratory standards, as well as for detection, sample preparation, environmental monitoring and analysis applications.
Analytical Laboratory Services
Analytical laboratory services detect, classify and/or assay chemical, material, biological, geological and environmental samples.
Mass Spectrometers
Mass spectrometers separate ions by their mass-to-charge (m/z) ratios. They are used to identify compounds by the mass of one or more elements in the compound. They are also used to determine the isotopic composition of one or more elements in a compound.
Material Testing Services
Material testing services test, analyze, and certify a wide range of materials for purity, chemical compatibility, and environmental impact.
Chemical Testing Services
Chemical testing services test, analyze, and certify a wide range of chemicals for purity, chemical compatibility, and environmental impact.
