Résumé du colloque

In a relatively short period of time inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry has triggered considerable interest in the analytical atomic emission spectroscopy community. This technique involves the coupling of a high temperature atmospheric pressure argon plasma, normally used for atomic emission spectroscopy, directly to a quadrupole mass spectrometer. With this system, elemental analysis at trace and ultra-trace level (including information about isotopic composition) can be routinely obtained for most elements in a matter of a few minutes. In this presentation the basic nature of the inductively coupled plasma will be discussed with emphasis on its use as an ion source for mass spectrometry, the effects that plasma operating parameters have on analyte ion signals will be outlined, and the qualitative and quantitative analytical performance will be illustrated.
