Abstrakt: The performance of a proportional correction matrix effect reduction procedure was investigated for an axially viewed inductively coupled plasma. It was shown that the proportional correction factor (ratio of analyte matrix effect and internal standard matrix effect) was sufficiently stable over the investigated matrix element concentration ranges (0–2000 mg/L of Na and 0–400 mg/L of Ca) for the procedure to be successful. Proportional correction results in the best correction for matrix effects compared to the classical 1 : 1 intensity ratio correction procedure or the approach without any correction, as was shown in recovery experiments using analyte spiked groundwater samples. Matrix effects as high as 18% without correction were reduced to less than 4% applying proportional correction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
