Product Overview
This Thulium plasma standard solution (1000µg/ml) is manufactured under stringent quality controls using Specpure® grade materials, ensuring exceptional purity and consistency for demanding analytical applications. The solution is prepared in a high-purity acid matrix to minimize matrix effects during spectroscopic analysis. Each batch undergoes rigorous multi-element testing to guarantee accuracy and traceability. The 1000µg/ml concentration provides optimal sensitivity for trace metal determinations while maintaining long-term stability when stored properly. The solution is packaged in HDPE bottles to prevent contamination and preserve integrity. As a primary standard, it eliminates the need for secondary dilutions in most applications, reducing preparation time and potential errors. The low background interference makes it particularly suitable for complex sample matrices where trace Thulium detection is critical. The solution’s homogeneous composition ensures reproducible results across multiple analyses, making it ideal for quality control protocols and research applications requiring high precision.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of this Thulium plasma standard solution?
The solution maintains its certified concentration for 24 months from the date of manufacture when stored unopened at 15-25°C in its original container.
2. Can this standard be used for both ICP-OES and ICP-MS applications?
Yes, the solution is formulated to be compatible with both ICP-OES and ICP-MS instruments, though you may need to adjust dilution factors based on your specific detection requirements.
3. What acid matrix is used in this solution?
The solution uses a high-purity nitric acid matrix, which provides optimal stability for Thulium while being compatible with most plasma instruments.
4. Is this standard traceable to NIST or other reference materials?
The solution is manufactured using raw materials that are traceable to NIST SRMs, and each batch includes a certificate of analysis with documented traceability information.
5. What precautions should be taken when handling this solution?
Always wear appropriate PPE including nitrile gloves and safety goggles. Handle in a well-ventilated area or fume hood, as the solution contains nitric acid.
