Average concentrations of glass standards as measured by LA-ICP-MS, compared to accepted values for Corning A, B, C, and D [32], and NIST 612 [33].

The calibration of the LA-ICP-MS data is based on the combine data of NIST610, Corning B, C and D and APL1, which are used to calculate the response coefficient factor (Ky) and convert signal intensities into fully quantitative data. The calculated data of Corning B, C and D can therefore still provide semi-independent measurements of precision and accuracy, especially for elements present only in low concentrations in Corning A and NIST612 such as lead, and elements that are systematically overrepresented in Corning A (e.g., calcium).
