Description
A combination of different types of instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) techniques was developed for the determination of iodine in various food items from Ghana. The methods involved conventional reactor flux INAA in conjunction with conventional and Compton suppression gamma-ray spectrometry using both the relative and the ko standardization methods. The other methods were epithermal lNAA (EINAA), pseudo-cyclic INAA (PC-INAA) and pseudo cyclic EINAA (PC-EINAA) with conventional and Compton suppression gamma-ray spectrometry using the relative and ko standardization methods
