Abstract: Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry （ICP-MS） was introduced to China in the mid-1980s. After nearly 40 years of development, the amount of related literatures has became innumerable. Among these, the review literatures are one of the most efficient and accessible ways for readers to understand the current status and development trends of ICP-MS analysis in China, and attracted much attention from relevant professionals. A total of 211 ICP-MS review literatures published in China from 1992 to 2024 were collected in this paper. They were classified and evaluated according to comprehensive reviews, instrument reviews, application-specific reviews, and annual reviews.
