Description
Auto-translated from FrenchEPFL intends to acquire two ICP (Inductively Coupled Plasma) devices for the Platform for Mass Spectrometry and Elemental Analysis of the ISIC (ISIC-MSEAP) at the School of Basic Sciences (SB). The devices will be installed at the EPFL Valais Wallis campus in Sion, which conducts cutting-edge research at the interface of renewable energies, sustainable chemistry, advanced materials for environmental protection, and analytical chemistry. The institute houses five research laboratories led by ISIC professors at EPFL's main campus in Lausanne and supports a community of up to 200 researchers, including Master's students, PhD students, postdocs, and research staff. Inductively coupled plasma techniques (ICP) – both ICP-MS(/MS) and ICP-OES – are indispensable analytical tools for our mission, enabling highly sensitive multi-element analyses for a wide range of materials and complex matrices. These capabilities are crucial not only in chemistry but also in the research laboratories of life sciences and material sciences.
