The analysis of elemental contaminants and impurities, especially toxic metals, is typically done in the inorganic analysis laboratory, operating inductively coupled plasma–optical emission (ICP-OES) or mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) instruments. Although sample preparation and the elimination of interferences are often the most obvious challenges, the role of software is often underestimated when considering opportunities to improve the overall performance of the laboratory. Important challenges are often related to effective operator cross-training between different instruments, batch setup, data evaluation and compliance with data security regulations like 21 CFR Part 11/EU Annex 11. The Thermo Scientific Qtegra Intelligent Scientific Data Solution™ is an instrument agnostic software platform controlling a wide range of instruments, such as ICP-OES, ICP-MS and MC-ICP-MS. With its user centric architecture and range of plug-ins, it brings together a wide range of hardware accessories and applications into a well-structured workflow.
