Themed collection Winter Conference on Plasma Spectrochemistry
Feasibility of rare earth element determination in edible insects by USN-ICP-MS after microwave-assisted UV digestion using diluted acids
A microwave-assisted ultraviolet digestion method with diluted acids was proposed for the subsequent determination of rare earth elements in edible crickets by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry with ultrasonic nebulization.

About this collection
JAAS is delighted to present this web collection showcasing some of the topical research presented at both the European and US Winter Conferences on Plasma Spectrochemistry (EWCPS).
Commencing from the 2025 conference, this collection celebrates work related to the development and application of analytical plasma spectrochemical techniques. This collection will continue to be updated with submissions relevant to each iteration of the conference.
Collections for the Winter Conferences prior to 2025 can be found here: https://pubs.rsc.org/en/journals/journalissues/ja#!themedcollections
