Direct analysis of samples by mass spectrometry: From elements to bio-molecules using laser ablation inductively couple plasma mass spectrometry and laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry

Thesis/Dissertation Perdian, David C.

Mass spectrometric methods that are able to analyze solid samples or biological materials with little or no sample preparation are invaluable to science as well as society. Fundamental research that has discovered experimental and instrumental parameters that inhibit fractionation effects that occur during the quantification of elemental species in solid samples by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry is described. Research that determines the effectiveness of novel laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometric methods for the molecular analysis of biological tissues at atmospheric pressure and at high spatial resolution is also described. A spatial resolution is achieved that is able tomore »« less

Technical Report Bank, Tracy L. ; Roth, Elliot A. ; Tinker, Phillip ; ...

Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) is used to measure the concentrations of rare earth elements (REE) in certified standard reference materials including shale and coal. The instrument used in this study is a Perkin Elmer Nexion 300D ICP-MS. The goal of the study is to identify sample preparation and operating conditions that optimized recovery of each element of concern. Additionally, the precision and accuracy of the technique are summarized and the drawbacks and limitations of the method are outlined.

Ultra-trace rare earth element analysis of geochemical reference samples using a recycling nebulization system with a disposable spray chamber by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry

Conference Chen, Z ; Fryer, B J ; Longerich, H P

In recent years, the precise and accurate determination of rare earth elements (REEs) in a range of rock types has became increasingly important. Interpretation of the REE geochemistry of igneous and metamorphic rocks and minerals is a prerequisite for the development of many petrogenetic models. Inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is a multi-element analytical method having detection limits across the whole mass range which are superior to most conventional techniques, particularly for heavy elements. However, there are samples in which the REE concentrations are below the detection limits (0.01-0.1 ppm) of whole rock procedures (1) in which samples are preparedmore »« less
Flow injection on-line solid phase extraction coupled with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry for determination of (Ultra)trace rare earth elements in environmental materials using maleic acid grafted polytetrafluoroethylene fibers as sorbent

Journal Article Wang, Zhao-Hui ; Yan, Xiu-Ping ; Wang, Zhi-Peng ; ... - Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry

A new sorbent, maleic acid grafted polytetrafluoroethylene fiber (MA-PTFE), was prepared and evaluated for on-line solid-phase extraction coupled with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for fast, selective, and sensitive determination of (ultra)trace rare earth elements (REEs) in environmental samples. The REEs in aqueous samples at pH = 3.0 were selectively extracted onto a microcolumn packed with the MA-PTFE fiber, and the adsorbed REEs were subsequently eluted on-line with 0.9 mol l{sup −1} HNO{sub 3} for ICP-MS determination. The new sorbent extraction system allows effective preconcentration and separation of the REEs from the major matrix constituents of alkali and alkalimore »« less
