ICP-OES Heavy metals quantification of soil, sludge or sediment (As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni Pb, Sb, V and Zn)
ICP-OES heavy metal measurement for soil, sludge, or sediment samples. The assay includes the pre-treatment of the sample with aqua regia decomposition and the measurement of the following elements using the ICP-OES technique: Ag, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, Sb, V, and Zn.
The concentrations are expressed in mg/kg d.m. in the results.
The analysis is also available with express delivery. Please request a quote from our experts.
