Product Description
When precision matters in trace metal analysis, the Iron 57 (57Fe) plasma standard solution from Specpure® delivers unmatched accuracy. This high-purity standard, formulated at a concentration of 10μg/ml, is specifically designed for inductively coupled plasma (ICP) techniques, including ICP-MS and ICP-OES, as well as atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). Whether you’re calibrating instruments, validating methods, or conducting research in environmental, clinical, or materials science, this standard ensures reliable, reproducible results.
The Specpure® grade guarantees minimal interference from impurities, making it ideal for low-level detection and quantitative analysis. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control to meet international standards, providing confidence in your data. The 50ml pack size offers sufficient volume for multiple analyses without frequent replenishment, balancing cost-efficiency with convenience.

Why This Standard Stands Out
Not all plasma standards are created equal. The Specpure® Iron 57 solution is engineered for:
- Exceptional purity, reducing matrix effects in complex samples.
- Stable isotopic composition, critical for isotope dilution analysis.
- Compatibility with acidic matrices, simplifying sample preparation.
- Long shelf life when stored properly, minimizing waste.
Researchers in geochemistry, toxicology, and biomedical fields rely on this standard to quantify iron isotopes in biological fluids, soils, and industrial materials. Its consistency eliminates variability between runs, saving time and resources in high-throughput labs.
Applications in Real-World Research
From monitoring iron deficiency in clinical studies to tracking environmental contamination, the applications of this standard are vast:
- Clinical diagnostics: Measuring iron levels in serum or plasma for anemia research.
- Environmental testing: Detecting iron pollution in water or soil samples.
- Materials science: Analyzing iron content in alloys or nanomaterials.
- Food safety: Verifying iron fortification in nutritional products.
Universities and research institutions across India trust Specpure® standards for their reproducibility. Whether you’re a student learning ICP techniques or a seasoned analyst, this solution provides the benchmark your work demands.
Handling and Storage Guidelines
To maintain integrity, store the solution at room temperature (15–25°C) in its original container. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Always use clean, dedicated pipettes to prevent cross-contamination. For long-term storage, tighten the cap securely to prevent evaporation or oxidation.
Pro Tip: Aliquot the solution into smaller volumes if frequent use is expected. This minimizes repeated opening of the primary container, preserving stability.
Safety Considerations
While Iron 57 is non-radioactive, this solution contains nitric acid (typically 2–5% v/v). Follow standard lab safety protocols:
- Wear nitrile gloves, safety goggles, and a lab coat.
- Work in a fume hood when handling open containers.
- Neutralize spills with sodium bicarbonate before cleanup.
- Dispose of waste according to local hazardous material regulations.
FAQs
What is the shelf life of the Iron 57 plasma standard solution?
The solution remains stable for 24 months from the date of manufacture when stored unopened at room temperature. Once opened, use within 6 months for optimal accuracy.
Can this standard be used for both ICP-MS and ICP-OES?
Yes, the 10μg/ml concentration is suitable for both techniques. For ICP-MS, further dilution may be required depending on your instrument’s sensitivity.
Is this product compatible with automated sample preparation systems?
Absolutely. The solution’s low viscosity and acid matrix make it ideal for robotic liquid handlers and autosamplers.
How does Specpure® differ from other grades like ACS or reagent grade?
Specpure® standards are specifically purified to remove interfering elements, ensuring background levels are below detection limits for most ICP applications. This is critical for ultra-trace analysis.
Does eqipped provide a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) with this product?
Yes, every batch includes a CoA detailing the exact concentration, expiry date, and traceability data. You can request this document at the time of purchase.
