When analyzing arsenic in sugar (sucrose) samples, the recovery of the spiked arsenic standard was nearly 200%, even though I was running in He mode. I also noticed that the signal for 35Cl in both the blank and sugar samples was about twice as high. I have adjusted and varied the helium flow rate, but it did not help. Could anyone help me solve this issue? For sample digestion, I only used nitric acid.
