From powerful mass spectrometers to mobile devices, tools available for
environmental monitoring are becoming ever more efficient, notes this cover story.
Inductively-coupled (IC) mass spectrometry, such as the new NexION 350,
is increasingly being used for measuring metals in samples, providing
up to 100,000 data points/sec. Agilent's new 7900 ICP-MS (see video)
extends the range of environmental applications by letting staff switch
easily from trace element analysis for demineralized water to high
total dissolved solid digests. Read on for more innovations, including field devices from Ocean Optics for monitoring air, water, and soil in real-time.
