With the Oceamo ICP-MS upgrade, your seawater analysis will get carried out by ICP-MS (instead of ICP-OES).ICP-MS(ICP with mass spectrometry) is significantly more sensitive, and offers up to10000 times lower detection limits as ICP-OES.

Attention: The upgrade can only be used in combination with an Oceamo seawater laboratory analysis!

With the Oceamo ICP-MS upgrade, your seawater analysis will get carried out by ICP-MS (instead of ICP-OES).ICP-MS(ICP with mass spectrometry) is significantly more sensitive, and offers up to10000 times lower detection limits as ICP-OES.

This results in the following advantages:

• Important trace elements can be reliably measured in the relevant concentration range. This is a great advantage, especially for the measurement of selenium, chromium, cobalt, copper and nickel. Many of these elements can only be detected by ICP-OES if they are elevated. Using ICP-MS, we can also reliably diagnose a deficiency of these elements.
• Toxische heavy metals (such as (such as mercury, thallium, bismuth, lead, thorium, uranium, …) can already be reliably detected in very low concentrations. ->And thus long before problems are caused in the pelvis..
• The measurement of other elements (such as cesium, tellurium, cerium and ruthenium)is enabled by ICP-MS.
• The sensitive measurement of trace elements also makes it possible to adjust the ultra-trace elements in a targeted manner.
