  • Patent number: 10510522
    Abstract: To correct spectral interference due to a divalent ion of an interfering element on a measurement ion of an analysis element measured by a mass spectrometer using a plasma ion source by accounting for a mass-bias effect of the mass spectrometer, measurement values of ionic strength of divalent ions of two isotopes having different, odd mass numbers among isotopes of the interfering element are used. In measuring to obtain a measurement value where a correction method of the present invention is applied, it is suitable to set a mass resolution of the mass spectrometer to be higher than a time of normal analysis.
