The geo-chemical behavior of the elements in the region is discussed. The irradiations were done at thermal neutron flux of ~ 1011 cm-2·s-1 at 20kW power using Kalpakkam Mini Reactor (KAMINI), IGCAR, Kalpakkam, Tamilnadu, India. Around 19 elements have been determined from 15 samples by high-resolution gamma spectrometry. The accuracy and precision were evaluated by assaying the irradiated Standard Reference Material (SRM 1646a Estuarine sediment) and were found to be in good agreement with certified values.展开更多
Instrumental neutron activation analysis(INAA)has been used to determine some chemical element contents(K,Ca,Na,Fe,Zn,Co,Eu,Sb,and Sc)in Traganum nudatum Del(Chenopodiaceae family)consumed in North African rangelands ...Instrumental neutron activation analysis(INAA)has been used to determine some chemical element contents(K,Ca,Na,Fe,Zn,Co,Eu,Sb,and Sc)in Traganum nudatum Del(Chenopodiaceae family)consumed in North African rangelands by sheep livestock.Samples were collected from the area of Djelfa in an arid steppe of Algeria.Results show that pasture halophyte had sufficient levels of K,Ca,Zn,and Co to meet the requirements of ruminants.However,it seems that this halophyte shrub had substantial amounts of Na,higher than the critical level established by the National Research Council(NRC).Eu,Sb,and Sc were within the safety baseline of all the assayed elements recommended by the NRC.The high Na content(~10 g/kg)in this halophytic species requires elevated intake of water by livestock.展开更多

This work describes the INAA characterization of air particulate matter collected in Rasht city, Iran. The particulate matter was collected in two sampling sites for elemental analysis in the period of winter-summer 2009. Samples have been transferred to the environmental laboratory of radiation applications research school. Neutron exposures were performed in Tehran Research Reactor, and measurements were carried out using HPGe detectors coupled to gamma ray spectrometer. In these filter samples, the elements, AI, As, Ba, Br, Ca, CI, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, K, La, Mg, Mn, Na, Sb, Sc, Ti, V and Zn were determined using different irradiation and counting protocols. Results show that mean concentration of most air-pollutants in Rasht are lower than those measured in other cities in Iran (Tehran, Shiraz, Isfahan). Collected data were also compared with reported results for other cities in the world.展开更多

All processes of the system, for example, change, transfer and irradiation of sample, data collection and treatment and so on are automatically controlled by an IBM- PC/XT micro- computer. Its applications are as follows: fully automatic determination of uranium content by delayed neutron counting method; fully automatic multielement INAA for short, middle and long lived nuclides.展开更多

The samples were irradiated with thermal neutrons in a nuclear reactor and the induced activities were counted by γ-ray spectrometry using efficiency calibrated high resolution High Purity Germanium (HPGe) detector. Most of the medicinal plants were found to be rich in one or more of the ele-ments under study. The elemental concentra-tion in different part of medicinal plants and their biological effects on human beings are discussed.展开更多
