 Sector-field ICP-MS used for assessment of new drill for ice cores

  Scientists in Canada and Germany have developed an ultra-clean drill system for the extraction of pristine ice-cores from the Devon Island Ice Cap, Canada. A Thermo Scientific Element 2 Sector-Field ICP-MS was used for the ultratrace detection required for the evaluation. The technique allowed detection of single figure pg/g levels of lead and cadmium.
