Collaboration with Masaryk University: Advancing Glass Calibration Materials for LA-ICP-MS

This week, we are pleased to welcome Dr. Markéta Holá and her student, Bc. Tereza Procházková, from Faculty of Science, Masaryk University to the FunGlass Centre. Dr. Holá leads research in laser ablation, and her visit is part of a collaborative effort with the Central Laboratories to optimize glass materials for use as external calibration standards in LA-ICP-MS. Bc. Procházková, who was awarded support from the Grant Agency of Masaryk University for her excellent diploma thesis, is working on this innovative project to enhance the precision of geological sample analysis through the development of customized glass calibration materials.
