Spectroscopy September 2019 Applications of ICP & ICP-MS Techniques for Today's Spectroscopists

Scientists from the University of Tokyo explored the utility of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) in lunar missions.

This work demonstrates the ability of PerkinElmer's Avio® 550 Max ICP-OES to provide highly accurate determinations of major components in hemodialysis solutions

Researchers from the University of Cordoba have validated a novel spectroscopy technique to help distinguish between extra virgin and virgin olive oils. This approach could support existing panel-based tests, which are often slow, costly, and subjective, by providing a faster, non-destructive screening option.

A recent study presents a new technique that combines femtosecond double-pulse laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (fs-DP-LIBS) with machine learning (ML) algorithms to significantly enhance tissue discrimination and signal quality, paving the way for more precise biomedical diagnostics.
