A high-throughput flow-injection — inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP MS) analytical method was developed for the determination of mercury in gas condensates and carbon-rich solvents. The sample (undiluted or diluted 10-fold) was introduced via a modified total consumption micronebulizer working at a flow rate of 30 μl min− 1 and fitted with a singlepass spray chamber. This low flow rate and the addition of oxygen (70 ml min− 1) assured the plasma stability and reduced the carbon build-up on the interface and on ion lenses. A limit of detection of 0.5 ng g− 1 (2.5 μl sample) was obtained owing to the reduction of dead volume and sample dispersion (peak-width was 3 s at half-height) in the liquid pass of the nebulizer. The elimination of the memory effect reduced the washout time down to 30 s which resulted in a throughput of ca. 60 h− 1. The method was validated by the analysis of 3 gas condensates by cold vapour atomic absorption spectrometry.
