Product Overview
This 10000 ppm Barium ICP single-element standard is meticulously formulated for high-precision trace elemental analysis, offering exceptional accuracy and stability in spectroscopic applications. The standard is prepared in a high-purity nitric acid matrix to ensure complete solubility and long-term stability, minimizing matrix interferences during analysis. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control to guarantee concentration accuracy, with traceability to NIST or equivalent reference materials. The solution is filtered through 0.22 µm membranes to eliminate particulate contamination, making it ideal for demanding applications where consistency is critical. Packaged in high-density polyethylene bottles with tamper-evident seals, this standard maintains integrity during storage and transportation. The 100 ml pack size provides sufficient volume for multiple calibrations while minimizing waste. Compatible with most ICP-OES, ICP-MS, and AAS instruments, this standard delivers reliable performance across various analytical workflows. The concentrated 10000 ppm formulation allows for easy dilution to working concentrations while maintaining analytical precision.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of this Barium ICP standard?
The standard remains stable for 24 months from the date of manufacture when stored unopened at room temperature, protected from light and moisture. Once opened, use within 6 months for optimal accuracy.
2. Can this standard be used with both ICP-OES and ICP-MS instruments?
Yes, the 10000 ppm concentration is suitable for both techniques, though you may need to dilute it further for ICP-MS applications to avoid detector saturation with the high barium concentration.
3. What is the typical detection limit when using this standard?
With proper dilution, this standard can help achieve detection limits as low as 0.1 ppb for Barium in most ICP-MS systems, depending on your instrument’s sensitivity and sample matrix.
4. Does this standard contain any stabilizers or preservatives?
The solution contains only high-purity nitric acid as the matrix with no additional stabilizers, ensuring minimal interference with your analytical results while maintaining stability.
5. What dilution protocol do you recommend for preparing working standards?
For most applications, prepare a 10 ppm intermediate standard by diluting 1 ml of this solution to 1000 ml with 2% nitric acid, then create your calibration curve from this intermediate solution.
