Hi Tayebe,

I used ICP-MS and LA-ICP-MS for determination of elements in plant tissues. I enclose our six papers on determination of metal ions by ICP in plants, may be useful to you.

What kind of ICP? Those most popular ICP for elemnetal determination are ICP-OES and ICP-MS for ultra trace elements. However were attached some articles as suggestions for reading about ICP-MS. Enjoy

What is ICP stands for in this case?

Dear Prof. Rodrigo Fernando dos Santos Salazar and Yuan-Yeu Yau,

I used ICP-MS for determination of Ag elements in plant tissues.

Dear Rodrigo, Thank you very much for the quick reply and useful article introduce.

Best regards, T.Roshani

Dear Tayebe,

Attached are two papers  on determination of  metal ions by ICP in edible oils though.

They may help.

All the best,

Sara

Dear Yuan-Yeu Yau,

ICP is "Inductively coupled plasma", a method for ions determination.

All the best

Sara

Hi dear friend (Sara),

I was very happy when I received your reply. Thank you very much. Thanks for your attached. I am forever grateful for your understanding and I would be very grateful for your kind help;)

Affectionately, Tayebe

Hope they help you anyhow!

All the best dear Tayebe,

Sara

Hi Tayebe, as always, a suitable technique will depend on target analytes (metals, bigger organic metal containing compounds, ..) , their concentration level (trace, ultratrace,..) and the plant matrix (oily seeds, leaves, extracts..). This will determine best sample preparation technique, possible need for a hyphenated separation technique and detection system. Once sorted this out, it will be easier to recommend literature. In the meanwhile, the following papers may give some insight on top of the already recommended publications:

Hi Tayebe and Sara, great application for providing me those answers. I have  learned a lot of things from RG members, such as you. Thanks!

Hi Dear Christian,

Thanks for your informative answer and thank you so much for introducing this papers.

Best Regards, T.Roshani

Hi Dear Yuan-Yeu,

It was my pleasure. You're right.

Best wishes, T.Roshani

Dear Anetta,

I really appreciate your help. You've been very helpful. Thanks a lot.

Sincerely yours, Tayebe

I attach here a good review on the sample preparation and analysis of environmental samples - it contains very useful remarks on plants.

Dear Matthew Wheal, Thanks for sharing your valuable paper.

The ICP is a great tool to speed up analysis. The ICP is calibrated with the following series of standards (Note: atomic absorption standards are not sufficiently pure for ICP standards; use only spectrally pure, plasma-quality standards).

Hi Sir Krishna Umachandran, I like your definition. Thank you for pointing that out!
