Notes: The above settings are stored in the software as "BAS192 Method Acquisition Parameter." * = widths of the entrance and exit slits. Alk = an increase in sheath gas flow from 0.15-0.2 L/min to 0.8 L/min for analysis of these elements. † = the interval between each of the calculation points in Mode 2 or the calculation window (in nanometers) that constitutes the single point in Mode 5.
