7850 ICP-Mass Spectrometer

Description

The Agilent 7850 is an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer designed to streamline analytical workflows and minimize operational delays. Its configuration aims to reduce time spent on sample preparation and data review. A key feature is the Ultra High Matrix Introduction (UHMI) system, which permits the direct analysis of samples containing high levels of dissolved solids without extensive dilution. The instrument incorporates a helium-mode collision cell combined with half-mass correction to manage spectral interferences from polyatomic ions and doubly charged species. This design is intended to simplify method setup and lower the incidence of repeat analyses. The system includes software tools for data review and instrument monitoring, potentially aiding laboratories in maintaining consistent throughput for routine multielement analysis.
