Neutron activation analysis of copper and silver in environmental samples

  • 1. Inst. of Science, Bombay, India

Description

A rapid method is described for simultaneous determination of copper and silver in environmental samples by thermal neutron activation analysis involving substoichiometric extraction with HINAP. The time required for radiochemical purification and counting of two samples and one standard does not exceed 2 hours. 1 μg of copper and 0.021 μg of silver could be determined with an accuracy of 11 and 15%, respectively
