What Is ICP OES?

ICP-OES is a destructive analytical technique that uses an inductively coupled plasma to excite the atoms of a sample. It allows the analysis of about 60 elements at once. This method is also environmentally friendly, utilizing renewable energy. ICP-OES is a destructive analytical procedure ICP-OES produces line spectra, which show the composition of the sample. These spectra can be magnified to reveal the peak characteristics. Click here for more information. The spectral “lines” can have spectral interferences, but software can help identify the peaks unaffected by interferences.
