Clean up your spectra Make your analysis easy Thermo Scientific Element 2 & Element XR High Resolution ICP-MS

Clearer Insight. Cleaner Spectra. See Beyond the Complexity. The Thermo Scientific™ Element 2™ and Element XR™ High Resolution ICP-MS provide class-leading elimination of interferences for the highest level of confidence. With ultra-sensitive and reliable multi-element analyses at trace-level concentrations, there’s no need for complicated sample preparation and method development. In mass spectrometry, spectral interferences occur when the mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) of interfering ions overlap with analyte ions. These interferences are the primary limitation of ICP-MS. Fortunately, there’s a...

What is high resolution (HR) ICP-MS? The unequivocal separation of analyte ions from spectral interferences is a prerequisite of reliable and accurate multi-element and isotope analysis. High mass resolution is the universally accepted means to separate spectral interferences. Precise and stable high mass resolution is a feature unique to the Thermo Scientific Element 2 and Element XR HRICP-MS systems. With a visible physical separation between the analytes and the interferences from the matrix, the analyst doesn’t require knowledge of the sample matrix prior to analysis. The power to reveal...
