Abstract:

Members of the Forensic Analytical Center at the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Chemical Biological Center Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD were requested to analyze samples that were suspected of containing arsenic andor selenium using inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometry ICPMS. The capability to process samples for specific elemental components allows for scientists to further analyze the samples for specific chemical warfare materials.
