Determination of chromium in biological materials by radiochemical neutron activation analysis (RNAA) using manganese dioxide
نویسندگان
چکیده
A procedure based on radiochemical neutron activation analysis was developed for the determination of chromium in biological materials. The procedure consists of irradiation of reference and test samples in a nuclear reactor, microwave sample digestion, selective and quantitative radiochemical separations of chromium and gamma-ray spectrometric measurement of 51Cr. Separation of chromium from the accompanying elements was done on the column packed with inorganic resin MnO2 Resin. Distribution coefficients of Cr, Zn, Co, Cs and Sc were determined in the system: MnO2 Resin-HCl, HNO3 and H2SO4. Accuracy of the procedure was checked by analysis of certified reference materials.

Determination of iodine in human brain by epithermal and radiochemical neutron activation analysis
Despite the role of iodine for proper development of the brain and the functions of the element, the accurate data on its concentration in brain tissue are largely lacking, the main reason being analytical difficulties associated with determination of the element especially at low levels. In this work, samples from human brain regions from Hungarian patients were analyzed using epithermal and r...
متن کاملCadmium analysis by radiochemical neutron activation analysis.
Radiochemical neutron activation analysis (RNAA) has been routinely used at the National Bureau of Standards to analyze Cd in a variety of environmentally important matrices. The method used to separate Cd from other neutron-activated products is solvent extraction. Zinc diethyldithiocarbamate [Zn(DDC)2] in chloroform will quantitatively extract Cd from an aqueous solution over a pH range from ...

In this work a determination of selected elements in the infant formulas commercially available on the Polish market was done. 14 different materials (milk-based formulas and grain porridges) were analyzed. Both, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) were applied for the determination of As, Cr, Fe and Se, which are recognized ...
متن کاملComparative study of activation analyses for the determination of trace halogens in geological and cosmochemical samples.
Halogens (fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine) were determined by activation analyses (neutron activation analysis (NAA), photon activation analysis (PAA) and prompt gamma-ray analysis (PGA)) for geological and cosmochemical solid samples. We studied how each analytical method was for the determination of trace amounts of halogens in rock samples. Radiochemical NAA (RNAA) showed the highest ...
