Heavy Metals

Elemental Analysis of Heavy Metals Using XRF

Elemental analysis is a process where a sample of some material like soil, waste or drinking water, bodily fluids, minerals or chemical compounds is analyzed for its elemental and sometimes isotopic composition.

Elevated concentrations of heavy metals are a known danger to all life forms. It is crucial to screen consumer products for their presence and to confirm their concentrations are below regulated levels in both natural and manufactured materials prior to use.
Portable XRF is ideal for screening any material for dangerous levels of heavy metals. Objects in all forms – liquids, solids, cores, powders, creams, shavings, chips – can be analyzed wherever they are located.

Micro-XRF can map the density distribution of heavy metals in materials to have a better understanding of where they accumulate. This technology is of particular importance when evaluating biological samples.
