Product Overview
This Ytterbium 10ppm ICP-ML single-element standard delivers exceptional purity and consistency for demanding analytical applications. Formulated in a high-purity matrix, it ensures minimal interference and maximum sensitivity in ICP-OES and ICP-MS instrumentation. The solution undergoes rigorous quality control with certified concentration values traceable to NIST standards, guaranteeing reliable results across multiple analytical runs. Packaged in a 100ml amber glass bottle with tamper-evident seal, the standard maintains stability against light degradation and contamination. Its low acidity formulation (typically 2% HNO3) preserves instrument longevity while preventing sample precipitation. The single-element composition eliminates cross-contamination risks associated with multi-element standards, making it ideal for calibration curves and quality control checks. Each batch includes a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis detailing concentration, uncertainty values, and expiration date. The standard’s extended shelf life of 24 months when stored properly reduces replacement frequency and associated costs.
FAQs
1. What matrix is used for this Ytterbium standard?
This standard uses a high-purity nitric acid matrix (typically 2% HNO3) to ensure stability and compatibility with most ICP instruments.
2. How should I store this standard after opening?
Store the opened bottle at 15-25°C in its original container, tightly sealed, and protected from direct sunlight to maintain stability.
3. What’s the typical uncertainty value for this standard?
The uncertainty value is provided in the Certificate of Analysis, generally within ±2% of the stated concentration.
4. Can this standard be used for both ICP-OES and ICP-MS?
Yes, this 10ppm Ytterbium standard is suitable for both ICP-OES and ICP-MS applications when properly diluted.
5. What’s the shelf life of this unopened standard?
The unopened standard maintains its specified concentration for 24 months from the date of manufacture when stored properly.
