Product Overview
This Specpure® magnesium plasma standard solution delivers exceptional purity and precision for demanding analytical applications. Formulated at a concentration of 1000µg/ml, it provides a reliable reference for calibration and quantitative analysis in atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES), and other trace element determination techniques. The solution is prepared using ultra-high purity magnesium in a stabilized matrix to ensure long-term stability and minimal interference. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control to guarantee consistent performance, making it suitable for laboratories requiring traceable, accurate standards. The Specpure® grade ensures low contamination levels, with impurities controlled to parts-per-billion (ppb) levels where applicable. Packaged in high-density polyethylene (HDPE) bottles to prevent leaching and maintain integrity, this standard solution is ready for immediate use without requiring additional dilution for most applications. Its homogeneous composition eliminates the need for shaking before use, streamlining workflow efficiency.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of this magnesium 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.
2. Is this standard compatible with ICP-MS analysis?
While primarily designed for ICP-OES and AAS, it can be used for ICP-MS after appropriate dilution to match the instrument’s linear range and matrix requirements.
3. What alternatives are available if I need a different concentration?
Lower concentrations can be prepared by serial dilution using high-purity acids or deionized water, though pre-diluted standards are recommended for critical applications.
4. How should I store this solution to maintain its integrity?
Store upright in the original container at 15-25°C, away from direct sunlight and sources of contamination. Tightly recap after each use to prevent evaporation.
5. What certification or traceability does this standard provide?
The solution comes with a certificate of analysis detailing the exact concentration, traceability to NIST standards, and impurity profile for quality assurance.
