Does ICP-OES detect molecules in suspension?
It will depend on the size of the particles which are in suspension. If the particles are very large compared with the capillary feeding the solution into the spray chamber then the capillary will block up and you will detect nothing and end up very unhappy with a broken machine.

If the particles are much smaller than the capillary then they will be able to enter the spray chamber and then be present in the small droplets which enter the plasma torch. As a result it will be possible to observe the particles by means of the ICPOES machine.

With a normal solution a droplet enters the torch.
The droplet dries out to make a solid particle
The solid particle melts
The molten droplet then boils in the heat of the plasma
The molecules formed are broken down to atoms in the heat of the plasma
The atoms are then ionized.

The inclusion of solid particles in the liquid fed into the ICPOES will give as the droplets boil to dryness additional solids particles. These solid particles may modify the behaviour of the other elements in the torch. I suspect that it may be similar in some ways to the processes which occur in the fireball as it cools after a low altitude nuclear detonation where things can adsorb onto existing particles. If you look in the literature at studies of fallout particles, the particles from the nevada tests have radioactivity deposited on minerals which are similar to those found at the test site.

I have found that if you increase the salt content of what you are feeding into either a ICPOES or ICPMS that the intensity recorded for a given concentration of an element (not found in the added salt) will decrease. This is a possible sign that some of the element is being lost onto the particles formed by the dehydration of the salt solution.

It is best if the ICPOES machine is only ever fed with samples which have been filtered through a very fine filter. I tend to use a syringe filter with holes which are about 0.5 micrometers. This helps to keep the fine particles away from the machine.
