14 Glass Expansion www.geicp.com 1 Effect of Spray Chamber Temperature on Intensity (Varian Vista MPX)

15 Glass Expansion www.geicp.com 1 Effect of Temperature on Intensity Varian Vista MPX 10% increase from 20 to 25C or 2%/degree C

16 Glass Expansion www.geicp.com 1 Effect of Spray Chamber Temperature Varian Vista MPX Avg. Intensity Transport Efficiency

17 Glass Expansion www.geicp.com 1 Varian Vista MPX Parameters Power: 1300 watts Coolant gas: 15LPM Aux. gas: 1.5LPM Quartz injector, 1.8mm bore Neb. Gas: 0.8LPM SeaSpray concentric glass nebulizer (0.4ml/min) IsoMist Programmable Temperature spray chamber with Twister Baffled Cyclonic

18 Glass Expansion www.geicp.com 1 Temperature vs. Intensity (Varian Vista MPX- 1.8mm bore)

19 Glass Expansion www.geicp.com 1 Temperature vs. Intensity (Varian Vista MPX) 10% decrease from 20 to 40C or 0.5% per degree C 29% increase from 10 to 40C or 1% per degree C 1.8mm bore2.3mm bore

20 Glass Expansion www.geicp.com 1 Low Sample Uptake Applications Biological applications Intracellular fluids Neonatal samples Forensic applications Speciation (HPLC-ICP-MS) Radioactive wastes reduction Low DL’s desirable

21 Glass Expansion www.geicp.com 1 Effect of Temperature on Normalized Intensity (20 uL/min uptake rate) PE Optima 2100DV

22 Glass Expansion www.geicp.com 1 Effect of Temperature on Intensity 20ul/min uptake rate 133% increase from 21 to 40C or 7% per degree C Avg. Intensity Estimated Transport Efficiency

23 Glass Expansion www.geicp.com 1 Spray Chamber Temperature Impact High impact with respect to intensity Interdependent with other plasma parameters Provides another dimension for optimization Must remain constant during the experiment

24 Glass Expansion www.geicp.com 1 Constant temperature benefits (1ml/min sample uptake) Higher accuracy Higher productivity Greater reproducibility Better experiments
