Abstract
By the use of a new simultaneous dual stage discrete detector for indu ctively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), a linear dynamic ra nge of 8 orders of magnitude was achieved in a single spectral scan. T he design of the detection system and its evaluation are described. Th e acquisition of the full spectrum of a human urine sample in a single scan is shown.
