Element determination and quantification in liquid and solid samples is a topic of great interest in many fields. Usually, environmentally important elements are present at very low concentrations (trace and ultra-trace levels) and therefore the use of sensitive instrumental analytical techniques is mandatory. At present a wide range of analytical techniques for elemental analysis are available in the market, including XRF and ICP-OES. Each of these techniques has its advantages and drawbacks and thus, few laboratories rely only on one of these analytical methods but often use complementary combinations of them.

This webinar will provide a practical walk-through of ICP-OES and XRF – the most commonly used analytical techniques for elemental analysis of liquid and solid samples. Special attention is given to the next generation of elemental analysis instrumentation and the advantages and limitations of each configuration is shown.

Key webinar take-aways:

• Discover the latest instruments for ICP-OES and XRF elemental analysis in the lab
• Learn which products can address your applications
• Identify alternative elemental instrumentation and analytical methods that may help streamline your Quality Control and process control testing
