Description

Auto-translated from French

EPFL plans to acquire two Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) instruments for the Mass Spectrometry and Elemental Analysis platform of ISIC (ISIC-MSEAP) at the School of Basic Sciences (SB). The equipment will be installed at EPFL’s ISIC Valais-Wallis site in Sion, where cutting-edge research is conducted at the intersection of renewable energies, sustainable chemistry, materials chemistry, and analytical chemistry. The institute houses five research laboratories led by professors affiliated with ISIC on EPFL’s main campus in Lausanne and hosts a research community of up to 200 people, including Master’s students, PhD students, postdocs, and associated researchers. Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) techniques – ICP-MS(/MS) and ICP-OES – are essential analytical tools for our mission, enabling high-sensitivity multi-elemental analyses on a wide range of complex material and matrix samples. These capabilities are crucial not only in chemistry but also for EPFL’s life sciences, environmental sciences, and materials science research laboratories.
