Size detection limits of spICP-MS for analysis of nanoparticles in environmental media por Goossens, Eline

“…The particle size detection limit (DL) was determined and the factors determining the smallest measurable number concentration such as background count rate and particle contamination are discussed. Validation of outlier detection parameters has been done and it has been found that the more conservative n = 5 for  + n* gives a smaller false positives count rate than the more common n = 3, while still not counting too many false negatives. …”
