Wednesday, September 15, 2021 at 11am EDT| 8am PDT| 4pm BST| 5pm CEST Do you have problems with false positive or negative results with your ICP-OES or ICP-MS analyses? Are you wondering where the interferences causing these errors are coming from? If so, join this webinar to learn how to identify interferences, develop strategies to manage them and discover new hardware solutions that enable unprecedented levels of accuracy for your elemental analysis.

Event Overview:
Interferences are a well-known problem in both inductively coupled plasma–optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) and ICP–mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). They can be subdivided into three main types: chemical, physical, and spectral.
In this two-part webinar series, the sources of interferences in ICP-OES and ICP-MS and how to identify them will be described. Software approaches for correcting interfered results which each technique will be presented and the latest instrumental developments for minimizing interference problems will also be discussed.

Improving Fluorescence and Raman Techniques for Environmental Microplastic Analysis
March 31st 2025A recent study conducted at the LaserLaB Amsterdam and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (the Netherlands) explored spectroscopic imaging techniques, including Raman and fluorescence microscopy, for characterizing microplastics (MPs), focusing on optimizing sample preparation, particularly density separation, and Nile Red staining.Spectroscopy spoke to Merel Konings, corresponding author of the paper resulting from the study, about her work
New Study Provides Insights into Chiral Smectic Phases
March 31st 2025Researchers from the Institute of Nuclear Physics Polish Academy of Sciences have unveiled new insights into the molecular arrangement of the 7HH6 compound’s smectic phases using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and infrared (IR) spectroscopy.
