Nuclear analytical techniques: present trends and future prospects

Nuclear analytical techniques are quite useful in various areas of science and technology, environment monitoring, life sciences and industry in view of the capability of multi element analysis in a variety of samples and with good detection limits for a number of elements. Most of the NATs are contamination free and often non-destructive analysis is feasible. New methodologies with the use of modern nuclear instrumentation and software development make NATs indispensable tools in analytical sciences
