ICP Advanced Test
ICP (Inductively Coupled Plasma) water analysis is a highly precise method used to assess the elemental composition of aquarium water. By testing 43 key parameters, ICP analysis provides a comprehensive insight into water chemistry, detecting even trace levels of essential and harmful elements. This advanced testing helps aquarium enthusiasts and professionals maintain optimal water quality by identifying imbalances and offering corrective recommendations. With ICP analysis, you can ensure a healthier, more stable environment for marine life, preventing potential issues before they impact your aquarium’s ecosystem.
Building upon our Standard ICP Testing, the Advanced ICP Testing service incorporates additional analytical techniques to offer a more comprehensive assessment of your aquarium’s water quality. In addition to the elements analysed in the Standard ICP Test, this service includes:
- Ion Chromatography (IC): Measures anions such as Fluoride (F⁻), Nitrite (NO₂⁻), Nitrate (NO₃⁻), Orthophosphate (PO₄³⁻), and Sulphate (SO₄²⁻).
- Robotic Titration: Determines parameters like pH and Alkalinity.
- Colorimetry: Assesses orthophosphate.
- Conductometry: Measures Conductivity, salinity and Specific Gravity.
This expanded testing capability allows for the precise measurement of additional parameters, providing a holistic view of your aquarium’s health. Our in-house SPECTROGREEN DSOI ICP-OES, combined with these advanced analytical methods, ensures that reefers receive the highest quality analysis in the industry.
Recommended by ICP specialists at Spectro for saltwater analysis, our technology ensures consistent and precise measurements, free from matrix interferences.
