ICP Lab Analysis PRO with return shipping
(1,3 & 6 Pack)

ATI® Laboratory Analysis Pro

The ATI® Laboratory Analysis Pro determines all the parameters of the Laboratory Analysis Standard plus nitrate, fluorine, and alkalinity (KH). An ICP-OES analysis of your reverse osmosis water is also performed. With the Laboratory Analysis Pro, you receive a comprehensive measurement that determines all important parameters with high accuracy. The following parameters are measured:

• Salinity
• Major elements: Sodium, calcium, chloride, magnesium, sulfur, potassium, bromine, strontium, boron
• Trace elements: Arsenic, barium, beryllium, chromium, cobalt, iron, iodine, copper, lithium, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, selenium, silver, silicon, vanadium, zinc, tin
• Pollutants: Aluminum, antimony, bismuth, cadmium, lanthanum, thallium, titanium, tungsten, mercury
• Phosphate/Phosphorus
• Nitrate and fluorine
• Alkalinity (Carbonate Hardness)
• Analysis of reverse osmosis water

Advantages of the Laboratory Analysis Pro compared to the Laboratory Analysis Standard:

• Additional determination of nitrate, fluorine, and alkalinity
• Analysis of reverse osmosis water using ICP-OES

 ICP Testing With ATI

The foundation for every successful reef aquarium is water chemistry.

Thriving reef tanks all share near-natural seawater parameters. Deviating from these well known levels is  the most common cause of a variety of problems,  such as algae growth or even coral death.

Correctly measuring water parameters presents a major challenge, but that's where ICP testing comes in. The highly precise, professional ATI® Laboratory Analysis offers you the advantage of determining key water parameters (e.g., calcium, magnesium, salinity, etc.) with the precision of a water testing lab which is far more accurate, consistent and precise than standard hobby test kits.With ICP analysis you also receive a significantly more comprehensive overview of relevant elements that can only be determined with professional laboratory analysis.

For this purpose, ATI® uses highly specialized professional laboratory equipment including ICP-OES, ICP-MS, ion chromatographs, and titrators. The most suitable measurement method is used depending on the element.

The ATI® laboratory, headed by Dr. Ben Funk, draws on many years of experience in analytics. ATI guarantees reliable, reproducible analysis, and results. ATI is always available to assist with any questions regarding measurements or  results.

Your water analysis is in the best hands with us.

At ATI®, you can choose from three types of Laboratory Analyses: Standard, Pro, and Ultimate MS.

Which ATI ICP Test Do I Need?
Comparison of the different ATI® Laboratory Analyses

The parameters from the table include the following:

• Salinity in PSU
• Alkalinity / Carbonate Hardness
• Nutrients: nitrogen/nitrate, phosphorus/phosphate
• Major elements: sodium, calcium, chloride, magnesium, sulfur, potassium, bromine, strontium, boron, fluorine
• OES trace elements: barium, beryllium, iron, iodine, lithium, molybdenum, silver, silicon
• OES pollutants: aluminum, antimony, bismuth, cadmium, lanthanum, thallium, titanium, tungsten
• MS trace elements*: Arsenic, chromium, cobalt, copper, manganese, nickel, rubidium, selenium, vanadium, zinc, tin
• MS pollutants*: Lead, neodymium, niobium, zirconium, indium, germanium, gallium, mercury, tellurium

*MS trace elements and MS pollutants – elements that can only be measured with ICP-MS in very low but physiologically already effective concentrations
