Fast and robust assessment of water quality using ICP-OES

Even in small quantities, many elements can have toxic effects when present in drinking supplies or food chains. As such, monitoring the trace elemental composition of drinking, waste, and surface waters is vital in the maintenance of human, animal, and environmental health. Examine the suitability of the Thermo Scientific™ iCAP™ PRO Series ICP-OES for fast, sensitive and robust analysis of major and trace elements in various water samples, including drinking water, following the DIN EN ISO 11885:2009 requirements.
