This study presents a dual-mode ICP-MS methodology integrating kinetic energy discrimination (KED) and dynamic reaction cell (DRC) technologies, specifically designed to address the analytical challenge of quantifying 22 physiologically critical elements (Be, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ca, Mg, Ba, Co, Cd, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Ti, Sr, Ni, Mo, Sn, Sb, Tl, Pb) spanning six orders of magnitude in concentration (μg/L to g/L) within complex biological matrices.
