Instruments
- PRECILAB routinely analyzes many process chemicals and ultra-pure water for trace elements, either by ICP-MS or by GF-AAS.
- Certificate of Analysis are reporting measured values for up to 68 Elements [or more if needed].
- PRECILAB provides the effective Method Detection Limits [MDL] and the recoveries for all measured samples.
- For most chemicals, the MDL's are less that 10 part per trillion [< 10 ppt] by ICP-MS.
- All trace element and IC instruments are located inside Class 1000 or better clean rooms in order to minimize any
environmental contamination. For specific ppt analysis,
Class 1 hoods are used for sample pre-treatment for even better environmental control. - Each ICP-MS instrument has an individual clean box to ensure minimal contamination from the environment during the analysis itself.
