The Thermo Scientific Element 2 is a highly sensitive, high-resolution sector field inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer. Perform accurate and reliable quantitative multi-element analyses at trace level, with the highest sensitivity and without complicated sample preparation. Three different resolutions provide a wide range of analytes. The Element 2 system covers the mg/L to sub pg/L concentration range.
In our laboratory, the instrument is exclusively used to analyse very low-concentrated analytes in solution. A typical example is the direct measurement of 9Be in river water, suspended river sediment and time series analysis of Phosphorus fluxes in the “Convent Forest” and “Bavarian Forest”. The integrated auto sample can be loaded with more than 240 samples for continuous measurement. An example can be found here.
