Back to Basics Part 2: AA Vs OES Vs MS
In this episode, part of our Back to Basics series, we dive into three of the most widely used elemental analysis techniques: Atomic Absorption (AA), ICP-OES, and ICP-MS. Joined by R&D Chemists Liv Forbes & Autumn Phillips and Tech Support Chemist Ashley Jones, we break down how each method works, where they excel, and the challenges that come with them. From AA’s simplicity and cost-effectiveness, to the multi-element strength of ICP-OES, to the ultra-trace detection power of ICP-MS, we cover the pros, cons, and practical considerations for each technique.
Whether you’re deciding which instrument is right for your lab, or just want to sharpen your understanding of elemental analysis, this episode is packed with insights to help guide your decision-making.
