Technical Webinar on LIBS (Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy) for Hyphenated Analytical Techniques
Presented by
Dr. Yonghoon Lee
Department of Chemistry
Mokpo National University, South Korea
Applied Spectra, Inc. is pleased to announce our technical webinar on LIBS (Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy) and LA-ICP-MS (Laser Ablation ICP-MS). Our guest presenter for this webinar is Dr. Yonghoon Lee at Mokpo National University in Mokpo, South Korea. This webinar highlights a use of LIBS as a Drpart of hyphenated techniques along with LA-ICP-MS and other spectroscopies such as reflectance and NIR to significantly enhance classification/discrimination power of food materials and biological samples for disease determination. Dr. Lee will also discuss the data fusion and modeling approaches to enhance effectiveness of discrimination with examples based on edible salts and nickel alloys. With powerful commercial LIBS and Tandem LA – LIBS instruments available (J200 and RESOlution Tandem from Applied Spectra), a wealth of chemical information can be obtained based on LIBS and LA-ICP-MS for accurate quantitative and classification analysis. This technical webinar by Dr. Lee will highlight an importance on optimizing spectroscopic data treatment, fusion, and modeling in achieving the best analytical result.

Webinar Abstract
LIBS and Friends: LA-ICP-MS, NIR, Reflectance, and Modeling
Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is one of the plasma-based elemental analysis techniques. It detects optical emissions from laser-induced plasmas for qualitative screening of samples, quantitative analysis of specific analytes or material classification. Since LIBS emerged as a rapid, versatile analytical platform, other spectroscopic techniques have been used in combination with LIBS. For accurate LIBS analysis, an effective data analysis methodology such as multivariate data modeling is typically required.
In the first part of this presentation, a few applications of hyphenated spectroscopy will be introduced. In these applications, LIBS was put in one of the two sides of the hyphen. For accurate classification of edible salts, LIBS, focusing on elemental information, was combined with LA-ICP-MS and also with reflectance spectrometry. The two hyphenated techniques, LIBS – LA-ICP-MS (or reflectance), provided complementary information to each other. To exploit 100% discrimination capability for salts based on both data sets, the data fusion strategy appeared to be critical. The effective data fusion approach will be briefly discussed in the presentation.
