X-ray fluorescence for mineral analysis: Using the best tools for the job can make all the difference

Prof. Saúl Loaiza shares the importance of robust quality control in mineral analysis by using high-quality in-the-field analyzers

Published on SelectScience® on 8 June 2022

To get the big picture to fall into place, we must look at the smaller things. Every aspect of our lives – our buildings, our cars, products in our homes, and the food that we eat – needs to be safe and of high quality, and mineral analysis is a key method of ensuring this.

Given the importance of mineral analysis to a range of industries – and, ultimately, vast amounts of our modern lives – it is essential that scientists have access to the latest and best techniques so that analysis can be done quickly and accurately, as well as in the field if necessary.

In this article, we speak with Professor Saúl Loaiza, an independent advisor in applications and analytical technology, and Radioactive Safety Officer and Professor of Chemistry at Universidad del Valle de Guatemala. He tells us about the importance of fast, accurate mineral analysis in industry and how X-ray fluorescence delivers that.
