“…These interferences can be overcome by choosing an interference free isotope, removing the matrix (Evans & Giglio, 1993), using alternative sample introduction systems (Evans & Giglio, 1993), using mathematical corrections equations (Dams, Goossens, & Moens, 1995), employing cool plasma conditions (Vanhaecke et al, 2000), using a collision or reaction cell (Feldmann et al, 1999), or by using a high resolution mass analyzer (Nonose & Kubota, 2001). Elements with high masses, such as Pt, are less susceptible to molecular interferences than lower masses, such as Ru (Hsiung et al, 1997;Brouwers et al, 2007c).…”
