Product Overview

This 1000 ppm iron ICP-ML single-element standard is meticulously formulated for high-precision trace metal analysis, ensuring consistent and reliable results in demanding laboratory environments. The solution is prepared using ultra-pure reagents and deionized water, minimizing matrix interferences for accurate ICP-MS and ICP-OES measurements. With strict adherence to NIST-traceable protocols, this standard guarantees reproducibility across multiple analytical runs. The stable formulation prevents precipitation or degradation over time, maintaining its integrity even during prolonged storage. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control to verify concentration accuracy, with a certificate of analysis provided for full transparency. The aqueous form ensures easy dilution and compatibility with most ICP instrumentation, eliminating the need for complex sample preparation. Designed for laboratories requiring stringent quality control, this standard meets international purity benchmarks, making it ideal for calibration curves, method validation, and routine instrument performance checks. The low acidity level (typically <2% HNO₃) ensures minimal matrix effects while preserving sample integrity. Whether used for environmental monitoring, pharmaceutical testing, or industrial quality assurance, this iron standard delivers unmatched precision and reliability in trace element quantification.

FAQs

1. What is the shelf life of this 1000 ppm iron ICP-ML standard?

The standard remains stable for 24 months from the date of manufacture when stored unopened at room temperature (15-25°C). Always check the expiration date on the label.

2. Can this standard be used for both ICP-MS and ICP-OES applications?

Yes, the 1000 ppm concentration is suitable for both ICP-MS and ICP-OES, though dilution may be required depending on your instrument’s sensitivity and detection limits.

3. What diluent is recommended for preparing working standards from this solution?

Use 2% nitric acid (HNO₃) prepared with 18.2 MΩ·cm deionized water for dilution to maintain matrix consistency and prevent contamination.

4. Is this standard compatible with automated sample preparation systems?

The aqueous formulation is compatible with most automated liquid handling systems, but verify your equipment’s material compatibility with mild nitric acid solutions.
