The NWRimage system is the first elemental imaging-specific laser ablation instrument, offering breakthrough sub-micron spatial resolution and ultra-fast signal response for high throughput rates.
Laser ablation (LA) systems are used in conjunction with Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) systems to detect and analyze tiny amounts of material. As ICP-MS systems have become more sensitive, a need has emerged for LA imaging tools with < 1 micron spatial resolution - a capability not previously available on the market. The NWRimage is provided with a carefully designed aerosol path from point of ablation to injection into the ICP itself. This aerosol path combined with a novel Dual Concentric Injector (DCI) ICP torch, yields < 50ms signal response to accelerate the speed of analysis and enabling enhanced sample throughput. The LA system is used for bio imaging of single cells and medical tissue samples.
