Inductively Coupled Plasma – Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES)

Multi-element detection in liquid samples using plasma-based optical emission. Ideal for trace metals, environmental testing, and industrial quality control.

ICP-OES is a powerful analytical technique used to detect and quantify multiple elements simultaneously in liquid samples. It works by introducing the sample into a high-temperature plasma, where atoms are excited and emit light at characteristic wavelengths. These emissions are measured to determine the concentration of each element.

ICP-OES is widely used for trace and major element analysis in environmental, industrial, pharmaceutical, and agricultural applications. It offers high sensitivity, broad dynamic range, and rapid multi-element capability, making it ideal for routine testing and complex sample matrices.
