Single particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry for the characterization of colloidal particles in soils, sediments and sludges: comparative study of sector field and time-of-flight instruments
Zhizhong Li, Madjid Hadioui, Kevin J. Wilkinson
Abstract
Combined use of single-particle inductively coupled plasma sector field mass spectrometry (SP-ICP-SF-MS) and single particle inductively coupled plasma time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SP-ICP-ToF-MS) provides insights into solid phase samples.
