MARINE TROPIC - ICP-OES analysis

Ultra-precise laboratory analysis

ICP-OES analysis is an advanced technology used by professional laboratories to accurately measure the concentration of over 35 chemical elements in your seawater. In addition, salinity and pH are also monitored to provide you with a complete diagnosis.

A detailed report and personalized recommendations

Once the analysis is complete, you will receive a clear and accessible report on lab.tropic-marin.com . This report is not limited to figures, it offers concrete and tailor-made solutions to correct imbalances using Tropic Marin ® Block multi-element solutions or Tropic Marin ® Components single-element solutions.

A simple and effective kit

No need to be an expert to perform this analysis! The kit contains all the necessary equipment : cuvettes, syringe, filter and return label. Simply take a water sample and send it to the laboratory. In a few days, you will receive your results directly online.

Long-term monitoring of your water quality

Maintaining a stable aquarium is not a one-time event, but an ongoing process. Tropic Marin allows you to keep track of your analysis history and track your water's evolution over time to adjust your parameters and ensure an ideal environment for your marine biotope.

Procedure and instructions for use of ICP-OES Plus Analysis from Tropic Marin

1. Register on the lab.tropic-marin.com website and create your aquariums.

2. Register your water sample with the individual sample number (on the packaging) on the website. To do this, go to the website and enter the digital code under "new sample". Alternatively, simply scan the QR code on the label with the sample number. This step is very important: without sample registration, the sent water sample cannot be assigned and you will not receive a result.

3. Rinse the bowls several times with aquarium water or reverse osmosis water.

4. Collect two water samples one after the other using the syringe provided. Squeeze the first 10 ml of water into the aquarium through the syringe filter, then squeeze the remaining 15 ml into the cuvettes and seal them tightly.

5. Stick a label with the sample number on each cuvette.

6. Attach the address label to the packaging box and send the water samples to the address indicated.

7. You will be notified by email when the analysis is complete. You can view the results in PDF format or view them online. In the latter case, a history of the water values of each aquarium is also displayed.
