This ICP-OES application report provides a comprehensive investigation into the elemental analysis of wine using the advanced technology of Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES) with Dual Side-on (DSOI) plasma observation. It addresses the increasing need for precise wine analysis due to heightened production and quality demands, as well as stringent national and international regulations regarding toxic elements like arsenic, cadmium, and lead.
This report details the challenges of wine as a volatile matrix, influenced by its alcohol and sugar content, and highlights the advantages of using SPECTRO ARCOS technology. By eliminating the need for sample digestion and offering enhanced sensitivity through dual side-on plasma observation, this method ensures accurate detection of trace elements while reducing preparation time. Additionally, the report showcases the system's ability to overcome molecular interferences and background correction issues using its proprietary Smart Background Correction (SBC) technique.
This analysis method is positioned as an efficient, cost-effective solution for ensuring wine quality and regulatory compliance across the industry, offering significant improvements in precision, speed, and ease of operation.
