Uncommon isotope ratio applications
This latest blog is being planned as I travel to China. During this trip I’m going to be talking to several groups of scientists who are using (or want to use) stable isotope MS instruments (also known as IRMS) for the measurement of noble gas isotope ratios. Hold on a minute, I hear you say,…

Who doesn’t hate airports?
I’m writing the first words of this blog at Manchester Airport before an international trip with work. Planning this trip triggered the idea for this blog; how business travel has changed and the lessons I have learned over the intervening years. I have the kind of personality that could be politely referred to as “detail…

Why is training so hard?
In my last blog post I briefly mentioned my training experiences and thought that this might make for a blog all on its own. For clarity, I spent three years working in a sales training role, although my job title at the time was the somewhat ambiguous “Instructional Designer”. In this role I was responsible…

How do you sell an isotope ratio mass spec?
Some years ago, I had a role in the sales training department of a large scientific instrument company. My job was to help train the sales team to be able to effectively sell the products and solutions we had on offer. The thrust of the training was typically to focus on the benefit to the…

Inorganic mass spec – the outliers
Regular readers of this blog know that much of my working life has been spent with inorganic mass spectrometers, from quadrupole and multicollector ICP-MS to stable isotope MS and through to TIMS and noble gas MS. That covers most of the “common” inorganic MS, if we can ever call them that, but what about the…

New osmium application note
How small an ion beam can ATONA® ultra-low noise Faraday collectors measure and still get useful osmium isotope ratio data? We’ve recently added a new application note that investigates whether the ATONA Faraday amplifier system can benefit the precise measurement of osmium isotopes in low level samples. To read the application note, click here.
