Product Overview
This Erbium 1000 ppm ICP-ML single-element standard is meticulously formulated for high-precision analytical applications. The solution is prepared in a high-purity matrix to ensure minimal interference and maximum accuracy in inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and other advanced spectroscopic techniques. The 1000 ppm concentration provides an optimal balance between sensitivity and linearity, making it suitable for both routine calibration and trace-level determinations. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control to guarantee consistency, with traceability to NIST or equivalent reference materials. The solution is stabilized to prevent precipitation or degradation over time, ensuring long-term reliability in your laboratory workflow. Packaged in a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) bottle with a tamper-evident seal, this standard maintains its integrity during storage and handling. The low acidity formulation minimizes matrix effects, reducing the need for complex sample preparation. Whether used for instrument calibration, method validation, or quality assurance, this Erbium standard delivers reproducible results across multiple analytical runs.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of this Erbium standard when stored properly?
The standard remains stable for 24 months from the date of manufacture when stored unopened at room temperature (15-25°C) in its original container.
2. Is this Erbium standard compatible with ICP-OES instruments?
While optimized for ICP-MS, this 1000 ppm standard can be used with ICP-OES after appropriate dilution to match your instrument’s linear range.
3. What alternative concentrations are available for Erbium standards?
Alternative concentrations typically include 10 ppm, 100 ppm, and 10,000 ppm formulations, though availability may vary by supplier.
4. Does this standard require any special handling precautions?
Standard laboratory safety practices apply. Wear appropriate PPE (gloves, goggles) and handle in a well-ventilated area due to the acidic matrix.
5. How is the concentration of this standard verified?
The 1000 ppm concentration is verified through gravimetric preparation using high-purity Erbium oxide, with final validation via ICP-MS against certified reference materials.
