The ATI Laboratory Analysis Standard is a laboratory analysis designed for the chemical monitoring of reef marine aquariums. It relies exclusively on ICP-OES technology to provide precise measurements with an intermediate detection threshold.
This analysis allows for the monitoring of the fundamental parameters of aquarium water and the identification of potential imbalances, deficiencies, or contaminations.
ICP-OES technology is based on the spectrometric analysis of a water sample vaporized in a high-temperature plasma. The elements present are excited and then measured precisely by optical emission spectrometry.
This method allows for reliable quantitative measurement of major elements, traces, and pollutants dissolved in seawater.
Precise measurement of salinity for overall water control.
Comprehensive analysis of macroelements, trace elements, and essential pollutants for the reef environment.

The ATI Laboratory Analysis Standard provides a reliable basis for the regular monitoring of a marine aquarium. It allows for the identification of variations in element consumption, detection of contaminations, and precise adjustment of supplements used.
This analysis is suitable for routine monitoring of reef aquariums, both for individuals and professional installations, when monitoring of nitrates, fluorine, KH, or osmosis water is not required.
The ATI Laboratory Analysis Standard analysis concerns only the aquarium water and does not include the measurement of nitrates, fluorine, KH, or the analysis of osmosis water.
