Abstract
A radiochemical procedure for simultaneous determination of the trace elements As, Mo, Sb and Se after thermal neutron irradiation, based on destruction of the sample with saturated Mg/NO3/2 or oxygen combustion, followed by solvent extraction of each element from a common aliquot in 6M hydrochloric acid is deterials was analyzed and good agreement with certified values was obtained.
