Metal Content Analysis Based on ICP-MS
ICP-MS (Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry) is an analytical technique used to measure the concentration of metals and several non-metal elements in liquid samples. Its basic principle involves using an inductively coupled plasma generated by a high-frequency electromagnetic field to ionize the sample, followed by a mass spectrometer to determine the mass of different elemental ions, thereby ascertaining the content of each element in the sample. ICP-MS has high sensitivity, good precision, simple sample preparation and injection techniques, fast scanning speed, and short operational cycles. It has extremely low detection limits for most elements, making it an ideal method for metal element analysis.
Metal ions may also be present in biological products, originating from various stages of the production process, including raw materials, additives used in the process, or wear of equipment. Therefore, metal content analysis plays an important role in evaluating and controlling the quality of biological products. BTP Biotech has been certified by CNAS/ISO9001 dual quality systems, and the company offers metal content analysis services based on high-resolution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, providing high-precision mass spectrometry analysis of metal elements in various biological products, accurately completing metal content detection.

Case Illustration
The sample to be tested is introduced into the plasma, where the high temperature of the plasma causes the elements in the sample to ionize by losing an electron, forming singly charged positive ions. These ions are then filtered and analyzed by mass spectrometry, and by selecting ions with different mass-to-charge ratios (m/z), the intensity of a certain ion can be detected, and further analyzed to calculate the intensity of a particular element.
