ICP-MS — Analysis Methods
At MURR we have a choice of two ICP analysis methods.

Our PQ3 Quadrupole system is capable of handling high volume samples and is suitable for the majority of applications.

In addition, we have a VG AXIOM high-resolution system that provides higher sensitivities and higher mass resolutions but with a slower throughput than the PQ3.

Both systems use a combination of pulse counting electron multiplier and analog detectors to ensure a wide linear dynamic detection range from parts per quadrillion (for some elements) up to hundreds of parts per million.
