| Abstract | This paper presents a practical guide to an optimized analytical procedure for the reliable quantification of trace element concentrations in fluid inclusions hosted by natural minerals, using laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). With the improved sensitivities of modern ICP-MS instrumentation, more stringent guidelines for cleaning and contaminant reduction become decisive in extending the limits of trace element analysis, particularly for dilute fluids and smaller inclusions investigated by highly sensitive sector field ICP-MS. We have identified three sources of contamination that limit the recording and quantification of low-count signals, namely: (1) the carrier gas quality that affects the continuous instrumental background. (2) The material and cleanliness of the ablation cell, connection tubing material, and sampler and skimmer cone, all of which may cause a falsely elevated signal during ablation. (3) Contamination of the sample surface during its preparation and from the deposition of previously ablated material, including aerosols produced during extended ablation of an ICP-MS tuning material. Contamination from these sources can overlap with the host mineral and with the fluid inclusion signal. Based on extensive test experiments, we propose a workflow that allows minimization of these contamination contributions and optimizes representative sampling and quantification of fluid inclusion data. For example, Au and S in low-density vapor-dominated inclusions may be quantified down to a few ng g−1 and a few hundred μg g−1, respectively. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
