Effects of organic acids in inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy

The effects of organic acids in an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) have been studied with reference to solvent introduction and plasma excitation conditions. When compared with water, an increase in emission intensity for Mg, Cd, and Zn atom and ion lines is observed when organic acids are present...
