2020 Winter Conference on Plasma Spectrochemistry, January 13–18, 2020, Tucson, Arizona
Guest Editor Ramon M. Barnes introduces this year’s themed collection on the Winter Conference on Plasma Spectrochemistry.
Paper
Evaluation of blood and synthetic matrix-matched calibrations using manual and inline sample preparation methods
Validation and performance for automated manual and inline sample preparation and analysis methods for whole blood samples.
Paper
Rapid automated total arsenic and arsenic speciation by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry
Rapid automated analysis of total arsenic and arsenic species by LC-ICP-MS. One- and two-column separation methods were developed and validated for arsenic speciation in urine samples.
The impact of sample preparation on the elemental composition of soft tissues assessed by laser ablation ICP-MS
Oven drying and freeze drying may alter the elemental composition of soft tissues subjected to LA-ICP-MS or ICP-MS analysis.
A total consumption (up to 75 μL min−1) infrared-heated sample introduction system for inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry
A compact infrared-heated sample introduction system provides similar analytical performance with higher robustness and faster washout than commercially available nebulization systems.
Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) spectra interpretation and characterization using parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC): a new procedure for data and spectral interference processing fostering the waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) recycling process
For the first time, PARAFAC was used to interpret and characterize LIBS spectra, providing the pure spectra, the signal profile and relative concentration of base and noble elements present on a printed circuit board from the hard disk.
A total consumption infrared heated sample introduction system for nanoparticle measurement using single particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry
A compact infrared-heated sample introduction system provides essentially 100% transport efficiency for single particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry.
Methods to increase sample transport efficiency in single particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry when analyzing nanoparticles
Infrared heating of the sample introduction system increased the transport efficiency, thereby improving the precision of nanoparticle size measurements.
How much aqueous sample can an inductively coupled plasma withstand?
An inductively coupled plasma can withstand the total introduction of 250 μL min−1 if infrared heating first pre-evaporates the aerosol.
Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry coupled to cation exchange chromatography for the determination of trace nickel in alkaline electrolyte
Cone corrosion by alkaline solutions with flow injection is prevented using cation-exchange chromatography coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry.
About this collection
JAAS is delighted to present this growing web collection showcasing some of the topical research presented at the Winter Conference on Plasma Spectrochemistry, held every two years in the USA. The conference features developments in plasma spectrochemical analysis by inductively coupled plasma (ICP), dc plasma (DCP), microwave plasma (MIP), glow discharge (GDL, HCL), and laser sources. New articles will be added to this collection as they are published.
This collection will be updated with every Winter Conference, so keep checking the page for new articles!
