| Trace element quantification in blood and serum in a single analytical run |
| Abstract: This application note describes the performance of the X Series ICP-MS for the measurement of Cu, Se and Zn in blood and Serum samples. |
| Copper, Zinc and Selenium are all essential elements in the body, but equally, if they are present in excess, toxic effects result. This application note demonstrates that the X Series ICP-MS is an effective instrument for rapid, accurate and precise measurement of both minor and trace elements in both serum and blood samples, in a single analytical run. With a rapid and simple sample preparation the X Series ICP-MS can routinely and cost-effectively analyze hundreds of samples per day at and considerably below the concentration levels currently required by clinical analysts. |
