Abstract

Instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) was applied to the rapid determination of cadmium and other elements in the IAEA biological reference material horse-kidney (H-8). Nuclear reactor neutrons and epithermal neutrons were used as neutron sources. Cadmium, bromide, iodine and phosphorus were determined by epithermal neutron activation analysis. Aluminum was determined by reactor neutron activation analysis taking into account the contribution of phosphorus to the 28Al activity.
