摘要: Neutron activation analysis using shortlived77mSe (T=17.5 s) preceded by chemical pre-collection of Se on activated carbon (AC) has been applied to the fractional determination Se(IV) and Se(VI) in natural water samples such as river sea water. Two procedures were adopted: adsorption Se(IV)/Bismuthiol-II complex AC Se(VI)/Bismuthiol-II after reduction Se(IV). It was shown that can be determined at a <μg l−1 (ppb) level waters present method.
