Conclusion
Cost of equipment
Depending on the laboratory's analytical needs, the cost of purchasing a spectrometer can vary considerably, as the purchase price depends on the number of analytical lines. It is therefore preferable to set a price range for a spectrometer equipped with 20 fixed channels and a single spark excitation source. So-called low-end equipment with a limited number of 20 or so elements ranges from 45 to 75 kE, while the upper...
