Description
The Reef Zlements Complete ICP-MS & OES Saltwater Test offers unparalleled precision. This service encompasses all the assessments provided in the Advanced ICP Testing, with the addition of ICP-MS technology for trace and ultra-trace element detection. While ICP-OES is highly effective for measuring macro elements present in higher concentrations, ICP-MS excels in detecting trace and ultra-trace elements at parts-per-trillion (ppt) levels. This dual approach ensures comprehensive coverage of both macro and trace elements, delivering the most accurate and reliable analysis possible.
By integrating multiple analytical techniques—including ICP-OES, ICP-MS, Ion Chromatography, Robotic Titration, Colorimetry, and Conductometry ICP-MS Testing provides reef keepers with a complete and detailed understanding of their aquarium’s water chemistry. This comprehensive insight enables proactive management and maintenance of optimal conditions for all marine inhabitants.
The MS & OES ICP tests 64 elements + 13 other parameters measured and reported:
