Product Name – Germanium, plasma standard solution, Specpure®, Ge 10µg/ml Quantity/Pack Size – 100ml Form – Liquid (aqueous solution) Grade – Specpure® (ultra-high purity) Application – ICP-OES, AAS, ICP-MS calibration and trace metal analysis
Product Overview
This Specpure® Germanium plasma standard solution delivers exceptional purity and accuracy for demanding analytical applications. Formulated at a precise 10µg/ml concentration in a stable aqueous matrix, it provides reliable calibration for inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The ultra-high purity Specpure® grade ensures minimal interference from contaminants, enabling accurate quantification of germanium in complex sample matrices. The solution is prepared using high-quality reagents and undergoes rigorous quality control to maintain consistency across batches. Its stable formulation minimizes degradation over time, ensuring long-term reliability in laboratory workflows. The 100ml pack size offers sufficient volume for multiple calibrations while maintaining cost efficiency. This standard solution is particularly valuable in laboratories requiring trace-level detection of germanium in environmental, geological, or industrial samples. The aqueous formulation ensures compatibility with most analytical instruments without requiring additional sample preparation steps. Each batch is accompanied by a certificate of analysis, providing traceability and verification of the stated concentration.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of this germanium plasma standard solution?
The solution remains stable for 24 months from the date of manufacture when stored unopened at room temperature. Once opened, it should be used within 6 months for optimal accuracy.
2. Is this solution compatible with organic solvent-based sample preparation?
This aqueous-based standard is primarily designed for water-compatible analytical methods. For organic solvent applications, consider evaporating the solution and reconstituting in your preferred solvent.
3. What alternatives are available for higher concentration requirements?
For higher concentrations, we recommend our 100µg/ml or 1000µg/ml germanium standard solutions, which can be diluted to your required working concentration.
4. How should this solution be stored to maintain its stability?
Store the unopened bottle at room temperature (15-25°C) away from direct sunlight. After opening, keep tightly sealed and store in a cool, dry place.
5. What quality documentation is provided with this standard solution?
Each bottle comes with a certificate of analysis detailing the exact concentration, batch number, expiration date, and quality control test results for traceability.
