Frequently asked questions

What is the operating principle of the Agilent 7800 ICP-MS?

The Agilent 7800 ICP-MS uses an inductively coupled plasma to ionize sample atoms, followed by mass separation via a quadrupole mass analyzer and detection using an orthogonal detector system.[2]

What is High Matrix Introduction (HMI) technology used for on the 7800 ICP-MS?

HMI technology enables direct analysis of samples containing up to three percent total dissolved solids without dilution, reducing sample preparation requirements.[1]

What is the typical dynamic range of the 7800 ICP-MS detector?

The orthogonal detector system provides a wide dynamic range capable of measuring major elements at hundreds or thousands of parts per million and trace analytes at parts per trillion levels in a single run.[1]

What software controls the Agilent 7800 ICP-MS?

The 7800 ICP-MS is controlled by Agilent's ICP-MS MassHunter software, which includes pre-set methods and a Method Wizard for simplified method development.[1]
