Teach Me in 10

In this installment of Teach Me in 10, we're joined by Ross Ashdown, who talks us through the basics of inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry, or ICP-OES. ICP-OES is able to detect and quantify ~80% of the periodic table. It is a technique that is adopted by scientists from a wide variety of different research fields. But how does it work? What are its components? What are some of the common applications of this technique? Ross explains all in this Teach Me in 10 video.
