Benefits of proper ICP instrument calibration, tuning and performance check solutions

Laboratories face new challenges on daily basis. Methods are calling for lower detection limits even as sample complexity increases. To meet these new challenges, labs need their instruments to maintain a high level of performance. We all know that instrument performance will decrease over time. Detection limits will never be as good as they were on your instruments’ first day of operation. There are ways to ensure that you are producing quality results even as your instrument ages. One method to ensure instrument performance is to keep up with daily, weekly, monthly, and annual maintenance of the instrument hardware and sample introduction system. Another equally important path for maintaining instrument performance is through proper calibration and tuning.
