AcmeLabs Schedule of Services & F ees 2013 | 37 Geochemical Ultratrace Aqua Regia Digestion Gr oup 1VE-MS Ultr atr ace by ICP Mass Spec ICP Mass Spec analysis of vegetation samples using a 1g split digested in HNO 3 then Aqua Regia and analysed by ICP-MS for ultralow detection limits. W ashing with de-mineralized water is recom - mended if samples are coated with inorganic material. (See WWSH under Sample Preparation.) AcmeLabs now of fers analysis of Pb isotopes (Pb 204 , Pb 206 , Pb 207 , Pb 208 ) suitable for geo - chemical exploration of U and other com - modities where gross dif ferences in natural to radiogenic Pb ratios, is a beneft. Isotope values can be reported in both concentra - tions and intensities.

Results are normalized to the dry plant weight giving lower detection limits and greater precision. Must be requested as an add on to Group 1VE above.
