Product Overview
This Dysprosium 1000 ppm ICP-ML single-element standard is engineered for high-precision trace metal analysis, offering exceptional purity and stability for inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) applications. The solution is prepared using ultra-high-purity Dysprosium in a matrix-compatible acid medium, ensuring minimal interference and maximum accuracy in quantitative measurements. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control, including multi-point calibration verification, to guarantee consistent performance across analytical runs. The ICP-ML grade certification confirms its suitability for low-level detection requirements, with traceability to NIST standards where applicable. The liquid formulation eliminates the need for additional dissolution steps, providing immediate readiness for instrument calibration or sample spiking. Packaged in high-density polyethylene (HDPE) bottles with tamper-evident seals, the standard maintains its integrity during storage and handling. The 1000 ppm concentration offers optimal balance between sensitivity and dynamic range, making it versatile for both routine quality control and research-grade applications where Dysprosium quantification is critical.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of this Dysprosium standard when stored properly?
The standard remains stable for 24 months from the date of manufacture when stored unopened at 15-25°C in its original container, protected from light and moisture.
2. Is this standard compatible with ICP-OES instruments?
While optimized for ICP-MS, this 1000 ppm Dysprosium standard can be used with ICP-OES systems, though you may need to adjust dilution factors for optimal signal response in optical emission spectroscopy.
3. What acid matrix is used in this standard solution?
The solution is prepared in a nitric acid matrix (typically 2-5% v/v) to ensure complete metal stabilization and compatibility with most ICP-MS sample introduction systems.
4. Can this standard be used for preparing calibration curves?
Yes, the certified 1000 ppm concentration allows for precise serial dilutions to create multi-point calibration curves across the working range of most ICP-MS instruments.
5. What documentation is provided with each batch?
Each bottle includes a certificate of analysis detailing the exact concentration, uncertainty values, expiration date, and storage instructions, along with traceability information where applicable.
