Trace Elemental Analysis with Minimal Sample Prep

Join us for a new episode of Live from the Lab, this time on Total Reflection X-Ray Fluorescence (TXRF) - a compact and efficient technique for multi-element trace analysis that requires only microliters of sample and minimal preparation. TXRF uses a grazing angle geometry to excite elements with high sensitivity and no need for digestion or nebulization, making it an attractive alternative to ICP in many scenarios.

In this session, Noah, our TXRF application scientist will walk you through the core principles of TXRF, discuss differences compared to ICP techniques, and share real-world examples across industries like food safety, pharmaceuticals, and environmental testing.

Whether you're looking to expand your lab’s capabilities or explore faster, cleaner analysis methods, this is a great opportunity to get up to speed on TXRF.

Broadcast live from Bruker's YouTube channel once each month, our Live from the Lab streaming series explores X-ray Diffraction, X-ray Microscopy, and Elemental Analysis topics, with advice from applications experts who also answer questions that come in during the show.
