Lithium Separation from Environmental Samples for ICP-MS Analysis

Sodium and lithium are present in most environmental samples. In seawater and some fresh water samples, the sodium concentration can cause interferences for lithium measurements by ICP-MS analysis. A lithium separation method that greatly reduced the amount of sodium would be advantageous for ICP-MS analysis.
