“…In contrast to the compact samples discussed in the previous sections, powdered samples require some kind of pretreatment prior to LA-ICP-MS measurement. The approaches most frequently applied for the preparation of compact samples from powders include milling/grinding/sieving for sample homogenization, combined with pelletization [ 107 – 112 ], fusion to sample disks [ 29 , 107 , 113 – 115 ], or mounting/embedding [ 110 , 116 – 119 ] of the sample in a polymeric resin. In some cases, alternative approaches such as ablating standard and sample in quick succession by placing them on a rotary platform or electroplating have been reported [ 28 , 33 , 120 – 125 ].…”

“…For the analysis of powdered samples, the previously described concept of liquid standard nebulization is also used for quantification of LA-generated aerosols. Fernández et al [ 107 ] proposed a quantification method with on-line double isotope dilution for a wide range of matrices. Samples were either analyzed directly (NIST SRMs 610, 612, and 614), pressed into pellets (USGS MESS-2 and PACS-2), or fused with lithium borate (NIST SRMs 2710a, 2711a, 1944, 2702, and 2780).…”

Laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) is a widely accepted method for direct sampling of solid materials for trace elemental analysis. The number of reported applications is high and the application range is broad; besides geochemistry, LA-ICP-MS is mostly used in environmental chemistry and the life sciences. This review focuses on the application of LA-ICP-MS for quantification of trace elements in environmental, biological, and medical samples. The fundamental problems of LA-ICP-MS, such as sample-dependent ablation behavior and elemental fractionation, can be even more pronounced in environmental and life science applications as a result of the large variety of sample types and conditions. Besides variations in composition, the range of available sample states is highly diverse, including powders (e.g., soil samples, fly ash), hard tissues (e.g., bones, teeth), soft tissues (e.g., plants, tissue thin-cuts), or liquid samples (e.g., whole blood). Within this article, quantification approaches that have been proposed in the past are critically discussed and compared regarding the results obtained in the applications described. Although a large variety of sample types is discussed within this article, the quantification approaches used are similar for many analytical questions and have only been adapted to the specific questions. Nevertheless, none of them has proven to be a universally applicable method.

Excellent agreement was noted in the concentration of major and trace elements in five NIST (National Institute for Science and Technology) soil reference materials (NIST SRM 2586, 2587, 2709a, 2710a and 2711a between measurement results from wavelength dispersive-XRF and ICP-MS from two independent laboratories, and NIST certificate of analysis and literature data. We describe the variability in concentrations of up to forty-nine elements (plus loss on ignition) and provide values for up to twentyone elements previously uncharacterised by NIST in these soil RMs. The additional characterisation provided in this investigation can be utilised to reduce the measurement bias of custom calibration routines and improve the quality of control checks developed using these NIST RMs.Keywords: National Institute for Science and Technology, inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. wavelength-dispersive X-ray fluorescence, WD-XRF, calibration materials, soil, urban agriculture.

“…The best performance was given by a ballshaped device with a volume of 35 cm 3 and inserted prior to the ablation cell. The practicalities of on-line double ID for the analysis of solids by LA-ICP-MS was also evaluated by Fernandez et al 383 A liquid aerosol containing an isotopically-enriched spike solution was mixed with the laser-generated aerosol in a Y-piece placed just before the ICP torch, a design rejected by Feng and Wang. 381 The double ID strategy required the sequential analysis of a certied natural-abundance standard placed alongside the sample in the ablation cell so that the mass fraction of the analyte in the sample could be directly referenced to the certied standard without prior knowledge of the composition of the spike solution.…”
