Plasma Spectrochemistry for Trace Element, Stable Isotope, Elemental Imaging and Speciation Analyses.

The 2020 Winter Conference on Plasma Spectrochemistry, 21st in a series of biennial meetings, features developments in plasma spectrochemical analysis by inductively coupled plasma (ICP), dc plasma (DCP), microwave plasma (MIP), glow discharge (GDL, HCL), and laser sources (LA, LIBS).

In a recent interview, Separation Science took time to talk with Adam Currie, Laboratory Manager at Siltech PMR in Melbourne, Australia, to understand how plasma-based techniques such as ICP-OES and MP-AES, and the Agilent OneNeb Series 2 Nebulizer, are being used and how this is providing benefits for the company's precious metals applications.
