I am using a Dionex DX-600 for low level transition metal analysis and am having problems obtaining consistent results in the low ppb range. I have tried acidifying and non-acidifying my samples and have actually obtained higher results for the non-acidified samples which goes against what I expected. Does anyone know why this may be?
