Dynamic reaction cell ICP-MS for determination of total As, Cr, Se and V in complex matrices: Still a challenge? A review

Analysis of whole blood by ICP-MS equipped with a high temperature total sample consumption system

“…17,19,20,21,22,23 These interferences can be minimized or even removed by using a reaction and/or collision cell. 14,17,18,24,25 Page 3 of 39 Journal of Analytical Atomic Spectrometry 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 4 Non-spectral interferences can also be found when carrying out the analysis of blood samples. Therefore, high concentrations of inorganic and organic solutes may cause changes in the aerosol generation, transport and/or the properties of the plasma.…”

Interference standard applied to sulfur determination in biodiesel microemulsions by ICP-QMS

“…16 Among the commercial devices, collision/reaction cell (CRC), dynamic reaction cell (DRC) and octapole reaction system (ORS) technologies present a pressurized cell before mass analyzer, and gases are introduced into the cell to promote collision/reaction processes that can minimize or eliminate spectral interferences. 16,17 In these approaches, the formation of undesirable species is possible and they must be eliminated. It is performed by two modes: either kinetic energy or mass discrimination, according to multipole inside the cell and their mechanisms.…”

Microwave-assisted acid Digestion Procedure for Trace Elements Determination in PolychaeteChaetopterus variopedatus

“…The use of diluted acids has several advantages, such as cost reduction, minimization of residues, reduction of blank values, and prevention of damages to equipment. 28,30,[39][40][41] All digestion procedures were evaluated by comparing the residual carbon content, the residual acidity of digests and the trace element recoveries. The residual carbon contents ranged from 4.0 ± 0.32 % to 14.9 ± 0.90% (n = 3).…”
