Ion Metrics

Ion chromatography is a scientific technique used to identify and measure ions—charged particles—in a sample. It works by separating ions based on how they interact with a special material inside a machine. As the sample passes through, different ions exit at different times, allowing precise detection and quantification. This method is widely used in water quality testing, environmental analysis, and food safety to ensure substances meet safety standards and to detect contaminants efficiently.
