Characterizing our own instrument
Hi all,
In our lab we were wondering if we can accurately quantify what the differences in mass sensitivity are between metals. We've seen the graph provided by Fluidigm on which metals yield the highest signals, but we reckon there will be slight differences between instruments.
Now we found a Rare earth element mix for ICP from Merck (product # 67349) and that might prove useful. Has anyone tried running an ICP solution to characterize their own machine?
