Evaluation of electrothermal vapourization as a method of sample introduction for the ICP-MS and determination of trace levels of titanium, gallium and indium in the central Pacific gyre
The analysis of trace metals in the ocean is a relatively new field of study. Since the elements of interest often exist at picomolar levels, this work demands analytical methods with ultra low detection limits. The inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS), with its improved detection p...
