Cold plasma technique with a RF power of 800-W were employed to diminish spectral interference. A wet introduction system with Scott-type double-pass spray chamber and an ESI micro-nebulizer with a sample uptake rate of 50 µl/min were used, which can offer low blank and high stability. Intensities of ion beams, 24Mg, 43Ca and 86Sr, were detected in pulse-counting mode. Mg/Ca and Sr/Ca ratios were determined directly from intensity ratios using external, matrix-matched standard to correct for mass discrimination and low-frequency ratio drift. Al/Ca, Mn/Ca, Fe/Ca, Cd/Ca, Ba/Ca and Th/Ca were also determined. Three different matrix effects are observed. (1) Acid effect on the elemental intensities and ratios decreases with increasing HNO3 from 1-6%. 5% HNO3 was suggested be used for routine measurement. (2) For the effect of Ca level, Mg/Ca ratio varies by 2.5% with [Ca] from 0.5-2.5 ppm and changes insignificantly for [Ca] higher than 3 ppm. (3) Different Sr/Ca slightly affects Mg/Ca determination with a slope of 0.18% per mmol/mol. It is caused by the formation of 86Sr double charged ions, which biases the measurement of 43Ca+ and affects the accuracy of Mg/Ca analysis. This effect causes only 0.1% or less for Mg/Ca ratio in both foraminiferal and coral samples. Replicate measurements made on standards and samples show that our method can give an internal precision of 0.1-0.2% (2RSD). Reproducibility of 0.45% for Mg/Ca and 0.35% for Sr/Ca can be attained. The corresponding errors are 0.05 ℃ for foraminiferal Mg thermometer and 0.5 ℃ for coral Sr thermometer. Advantages of this new technique include a small sample size of only 2 µg and high throughput of 10 samples per hour.Page Table of Contents.........................................I List of Figures..........................................II List of Tables...........................................IV 摘要......................................................1 Abstract..................................................2 Chapter 1 Introduction.....................................3 Chapter 2 Experiment Method................................5 2.1 Chemistry.............................................5 2.1.1 Plastic-ware ........................................5 2.1.2 Standards...........................................5 2.1.3 Samples and pre-treatment...........................7 2.2 Instrumentation.......................................8 2.2.1 Sample introduction system..........................8 2.2.2 ICP-SF-MS (Element2)................................9 2.3 Data acquisition.....................................10 2.3.1 Coral..............................................10 2.3.2 Foraminifer........................................10 2.3.3 Other carbonate....................................10 Chapter 3 Result and Discussion...........................13 3.1 Spectral interference................................13 3.2 Mass discrimination and ratio drift..................16 3.3 Measurement sequence.................................18 3.4 Matrix effects .......................................20 3.4.1 Acid matrix effect.................................20 3.4.2 Matrix effect of [Ca] on Mg/Ca and Sr/Ca ratios....25 3.4.3 Matrix effects of Mg level on Sr/Ca and Sr level on Mg/Ca....................................................28 3.5 Reproducibility and sample size......................30 3.6 Comparison with other techniques.....................32 3.7 Applications.........................................35 3.7.1 Foraminiferal samples..............................35 Chapter 4 Conclusion...................................36 Reference ................................................371526309 bytesapplication/pdfen-US鎂鈣比值鍶鈣比值有孔蟲珊瑚磁場式感應耦合電漿質譜儀Mg/CaSr/CaICP-MSForaminiferaCoral利用磁場式感應耦合電漿質譜儀精確測量碳酸鹽類之鎂鈣及鍶鈣比值High-precision determination of carbonate Mg/Ca and Sr/Ca ratios by inductively coupled plasma sector field mass spectrometrythesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/54853/1/ntu-95-R93224106-1.pdf
