Online Event to Highlight Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) for the Analytical Laboratory

MINNEAPOLIS, July 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- TSI Incorporated, manufacturer of precision measurement instrumentation and chemical analysis solutions, is sponsoring a webinar on July 23, 2013, presented and moderated by Spectroscopy Magazine, to highlight Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS), an innovative new technique for chemical analysis that serves as an alternative to traditional methods.

Laser-Induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is gaining acceptance as a complement to ICP-OES and other elemental analysis methods. This webcast will illustrate laboratory uses of LIBS that provide both qualitative and quantitative data. Examples from pharmaceutical, metals, and other process industries will show how LIBS direct elemental analysis can save time and provide crucial information from routine analysis to depth profiles and surface concentration maps.

"This webinar will teach how LIBS analysis provides quantitative elemental concentrations, while avoiding time-consuming digestion steps; explain how analysts use LIBS as a compliment to other methods; and touch on the unique features of the ChemReveal Desktop LIBS system," commented Dr. Steve Buckley, Director of Market Development at TSI Incorporated. "As such, this presentation is well suited for Laboratory analytical chemists, core laboratory managers, researchers interested in material science and geochemistry, and quality assurance and inspection professionals for positive material identification (PMI)."
