What is the purpose of a Rinse Station in ICP?
An ICP rinse station’s purpose in Inductively Coupled Plasma analysis is to prevent contamination and memory effects between samples by thoroughly washing the sampling probe and introduction system, ensuring accurate, sensitive trace element detection, improving sample throughput, and minimizing data flagging from carryover, especially for difficult matrices or elements like boron. It automates the washing process using dedicated rinse solutions (acid, pure water, special detergents) and often includes features like bubbling or unique spray chambers for faster washout.
Key Functions:
- Reduce Carryover: Flushes residual analytes from the previous sample out of the system before the next analysis.
- Improve Accuracy: Prevents high-concentration samples from skewing results of subsequent low-concentration samples.
- Increase Productivity: Rapid rinsing saves time compared to manual cleaning or slow standard washes, boosting sample throughput.
- Handle Difficult Samples: Special rinse protocols and solutions (like ICP True Rinse) tackle elements that stick (e.g., B, Hg).
- Dedicated Setups: Allows for quick switching between aqueous and organic sample analysis with dedicated rinse stations.
Components & Features:
- Autosampler Integration: Part of the automated autosampler system, often with specific tubing and fittings.
- Dual Rinse Stations: Allows for two different rinse liquids (e.g., acid and pure water).
- Rapid Rinse Systems: Use specialized nozzles, bubbling, or low-volume spray chambers for faster washout.
- Rinse Solutions: Utilizes acids, pure water, or specialized detergents to remove stubborn elements.
