The study focuses on validating reference methods such as ICP-OES and ICP-MS for detecting ultratrace levels of chromium in groundwater, where concentrations are typically very low. Additionally, it verifies a hyphenated technique, IC-ICP-MS, for determining naturally occurring Cr(VI) in tested waters. The validation process involved various chromium analysis variants, including isotopes 52Cr and 53Cr in ICP-MS and IC-ICP-MS techniques, along with specific emission lines in the ICPOES technique. Statistical data processing revealed that the achieved limits of quantification for ...
