University of Southampton awarded a contract to Agilent Technologies LDA UK Limited for the supply of a Multi/Triple Quad Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer for the Geochemistry Group based at the National Oceanography Centre Southampton.

The instrument provides accurate and precise quantitative analyses of trace and major elements across natural and synthetic sample matrices, supports aqueous and organic solvent sample introduction, and can couple with a laser ablation unit for microscale solid sampling.

It complements the group's existing Multi-collector, Sector Magnet, and Single Quad ICP-MS capabilities by removing isobaric, doubly charged, and molecular interferences.

The contract value was £149,964.
