Description

The Agilent MP-AES 4210 microwave plasma - atomic emission spectrometer is a device used for the determination of a wide range of elements in various aqueous and mineralized solid samples. With the aid of the aforementioned device, metallic elements of groups 1 to 15 can be determined, including most of the lanthanides and elements such as phosphorus, arsenic and selenium. It is also possible to determine some actinides, such as e.g. uranium. The limits of determination for the mentioned metallic elements are estimated at the level of tens or hundreds of ppb (depending on the excitation potential of a given element). In the case of elements with high excitation potentials, the limits of determination are estimated at the level of ppm.

Access rules

Access rules

The rules of using the equipment will be consistent with the research infrastructure management system being developed. The elements of this system include the method of reporting the demand for the performance of tests, the appointment of a person responsible for the performance of the tests, and the rules governing the intellectual property of the results. An element of the system will also be the settlement for the performed tests, allowing for free testing (in the case of joint publication or on the basis of reciprocity using the apparatus).
