Use the ICP-MS Analysis to get a much more detailed view about pollutants and trace elements in your aquarium.

With the Oceamo ICP-MS, your seawater analysis is carried out with ICP-MS (instead of ICP-OES). ICP-MS (ICP with mass spectrometry) is significantly more sensitive and offers up to 10,000 times lower detection limits than ICP-OES.

This results in the following key advantages:

  • Important trace elements can be reliably measured in the relevant concentration range. This is a great advantage, especially for the measurement of selenium, chromium, cobalt, copper and nickel. Many of these elements can be OES can only be measured when they are elevated. Using ICP-MS we can also reliably diagnose a deficiency of these elements.

  • Toxic heavy metals (such as mercury, thallium, bismuth, lead, thorium, uranium, …) can be reliably detected even in very low concentrations. And thus long before problems are caused in the tank.

  • The measurement of other elements (such as caesium, tellurium, cerium and ruthenium) is made possible by ICP-MS.

We measure these parameters using ICP-MS seawater analysis:

Basic parameters: Alkalinity (KH), salinity, SAK254
Quantitative elements: Boron, bromide, calcium, chloride, potassium, magnesium, sodium, strontium, sulphate
Trace elements: Barium, chromium, cobalt, cesium, iron, fluoride, iodine, copper, lithium, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, rubidium, selenium, vanadium, zinc, tin
Pollutants: Aluminum, antimony, arsenic, beryllium, bismuth, lead, cadmium, cerium, gallium, lanthanum, mercury, neodymium, thallium, tellurium, titanium, ruthenium, thorium, tungsten, uranium
Nutrients: Nitrate, nitrite, phosphate (photometric), silicon

As part of the ICP-MS seawater analysis, we analyze your osmosis water for the “frequent problem causes” copper, zinc and silicon free of charge.

We recommend the ICP-MS seawater analysis in any case for problems in the tank, as well as at regular intervals to evaluate the trace element status.
