TIMS, depending on the application [3]. These developments with magnetic sector instruments include multiple Faraday cup detectors (multicollectors) and multiple ion counters. The Faraday cup multicollectors have enabled the determination of isotope ratios with accuracy and precision rivaling TIMS [4], Due to lower sensitivity and differences in instrument design, quadrupole instruments (quadrupole inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry [Q-ICP-MS]) have not demonstrated the same accuracy and precision as magnetic sector instruments, especially at low concentrations [5], Nevertheless, improvements in the sensitivity of quadrupole instrumentation have also increased their utility for many isotope ratio applications [6].
