Review of Fundamental Developments in Analysis

Nucleonics G. W. leddicotfe Oak Ridge National laboratory, Oak Ridge, Tenn.

T

review of significant publications in nucleonics covers the period from late 1959 to late 1961 and supplemrnts t h e previous review by lleinke (777). The trend to nucleonic applications in analytical chemistry, noted by LIrinke in his earlier reviews, continues to increase so that many more articles have appeared. I n an attempt to establish a suitable criteria for evaluating the inclusion of a reference in this review, this reviewer has accepted the responsibility of citing only those articles that have significant value to those areas of nucleonics concerned with the chemical separations of radioisotopes from other radioactive species, the measurements of their radioactivity, and their use in tracer applications. KO attempt has been made to cite all HIS

publications on conferences, reference materials, trade literature, and the like. Such information is readily available through other sources. I n establishing a format for presentation, the reviewer has recognized that certain general information must necessarily precede the more specific information. Such information establishes thoughts and ideas on prerequisites that have been necessary before each scientist could accomplish his investigation in this unique area of analytical chemistry. The sequency of specific information-radiochemical separations, radioactivity measurements, and radiotracer applications-has been accepted as being an adequate means of giving as much information as possible on the fundamental developments in nucleon-

ics. V i t h regard to the bibliography presentation, reference is made sometimes to a second source, for example, Nuclear Science ilbstracts, only to assist the reader if it is difficult to locate the original article. GENERAL

The impact of radioisotope methodology in the discipline of analytical chemistry can only be emphasized from the number of authors cited in this review. Many existing analysis problems are now being solved through the use of radioisotopes and their phenomena. Aebersold (I@, in his discussion on the economic implications of radioisotopes in everyday application, very aptly establishes a pattern for the inVOL. 34, NO. 5, APRIL 1962

creased use of such powerful analytical aids. Special sources of information on radioisotope applications, availability, and potential value have been prepared by Blaetus (126) and others (66, 70, 123, 364, 531, 746, 846, 983, 997). Forsling (343) has recently reported on the future of transuranic elements and a review has been made by Crane (249) on the possible applications of the transplutonium elements, Cm242, Cm244,and PuZs8 to space technology. The compilations by Millett and Wilson (791) and Voress, Jacobs, and Smelcer (1176) contain many references to bibliographies and literature surveys on the use of radioisotopes. Special sources of information have been published on radioisotope applications in biochemistry (166), in chemical research (260,460,607,795, 1133),in drug research (372), and in industrial problems (67, 260, 261, 308, 318, 365, 406, 774, 980). Cameron (203) gives many references on the use of radioisotopes in nondestructive testing, and Maedu (735) reports on their use as sources in quality control of fabrication processes. Such information sources as the revised Isotope Catalog of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (885) reports on the availability of radioisotopes. Atomic Energy of Canada, Ltd., also has issued a revised radioisotope handbook (71). A catalog of radioisotope data is also available from the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority (33). Stiennon-Bovy and Geladi (1107) have issued a nomogram for radioisotope utilization. Typical of the reports issued on the type of laboratory and equipment needed for the processing of radioactive materials is that by Scott (1034). This report contains a bibliography of a t least 126 references on the design and construction of radiochemical laboratories. Fundamental rules relative to the construction and management of an analytical laboratory for handling plutonium have been reported by Metz and Waterbury (786). Similar reports on radiochemical laboratories and their equipment have been given by Grinberg (417), Gadda and Scaroni (368, 559), and Triulzi (1135). Other general articles show that there has been an increase in the interest of providing training in the techniques of radioisotope handling. Daudel (262) and Danforth and Stapp (260) have published excellent handbooks for use in training personnel to utilize radioisotopes in chemical and industrial problems. Chase (217) has prepared a laboratory manual that can be used primarily as an introductory guide in radioisotope methodology for technicians, advanced students, and researchers. Practical experiments are included. Choppin (226) has published a sign%cant text and a series of good experi-

ments on experimental nuclear chemistry. Garrett (368) gives an excellent discussion on the place of nuclear radiochemistry in the curriculum in general chemistry, and Radin (964, 965) has recently published a group of radioisotope experiments for use in the chemistry curriculum. Other articles containing laboratory experiments have also become available (211, 461, 564). The books by Emeleus and Sharpe (508) and Faires and Parks (321), and the revised edition of the National Research Council’s Subcommittee on Radiochemistry’s handbook (860) also provide excellent information on radiochemistry and radioisotope laboratory techniques.

RADIOISOTOPE SEPARATIONS

Much consideration continues to be given to radiochemical methods of analysis. General compilations by Fisher (332), Fletcher (338), Gerlit, Pavolotakaya, and Rodin (376), Harteck and Dondes (447), Healy (452), Krivokhatskii (631), Kovach (625), and Monk and Herrington (807) report on many of the radiochemical methods used to determine radioactive elements, The World Health Organization, Geneva (1228), also has recently issued a technical report on the methods of radiochemical analysis. Reviews on the methods of separation used in the analysis of mixtures of the fission products have been presented by Agrinier (15), Bar (82), Henry and Herczeg (467), Pi (934), and Thompson (1128). -4 revised collection of radiochemical procedures for most of the fission products and other radionuclides has been issued by Kleinberg (599). Schneider and Harmon (1028) also record procedures for the fission product elements. Supplemental radiochemical procedures to the Oak Ridge National Laboratory have also been recently issued (884). Methods for the quantitative analysis of radionuclides in process and environmental samples (113, 137, 1208), in urine (138, 1035), in biological science (113, 446, 1031), and in connection with nuclear reactor requirements (307, 930) have also been evaluated and reported. Other information on compilations of radiochemical analysis procedures appear in a recent revision to the booklet of the Subcommittee of Radiochemistry of the National Research Council entitled “Source Material for Radiochemistry” (860). Sharpatyi (1063) reports on the radiochemistry of aqueous solutions. Welford and others (1195) describe a method for the sequential analysis of ten nuclides occurring in long range fallout debris. Samsahl (1014) also describes a chemical eight-group separation method for routine use in radiochemistry. Strassman (1090) describes

methods for the separation and determination of short lived radionuclides. Wish and F r e i l i g (1226) report on the use of a carrier-free procedure in quantitative radiochemical analysis. Articles discussing factors affecting radioactive gas emanation ( l o g s ) , the precipitation of uranyl ferrocyanide from aqueous solutions (1082) have also been presented. Ziv and Sinitsyna (1243, 1244) report on the determination of the electrode potentials of radioactive elements. Applications of polarography in radiochemistry have been described by Ferenczy (327), Shinagawa and Nezu (1065), and by Love and Greendale (710, 711). Meinke (777) has previously described the interests of the Subcommittee OR Radiochemistry in compiling available information on the inorganic and radiochemistry of each individual element into a monograph to be issued as a part of a series. The following monographs have been issued and can be obtained from The Office of Technical Services, Washington, D. C., for a nominal cost: actinium (1105), aluminum (692), americium (927), arsenic ( l o g ) , astatine (62), barium (1115), beryllium (322), bromine (GOO), cadmium (275), calcium (1115), carbon (487), cesium (331), chromium (959), chlorine (600), cobalt (9S), copper (294, curium (927), fluorine (600), francium (500), gallium (692), germanium (761), gold (310), hafnium (1101), indium (1116), iodine (GOO), iridium (669), iron (869), lead (384),manganese (658), mercury (984), molybdenum (1019), niobium (1102), nitrogen (487), osmium (660), oxygen (487),.platinum (661), polonium (328), potassium (672), protoactinium (597), the rare earths (1105), the rare gases (806), rhenium (662), rhodium (R27), ruthenium (1229), scandium (1105), selenium (663), strontium (1115), tantalum (1102), technetium (61), tellurium (669) , thorium (601), tin (868), titanium (590), the transcurium elements (471), tungsten (838), vanadium (176), yttrium (1106), zinc (469), and zirconium (1101). Additional monographs in the series will be issued during 1962. Analytical techniques based upon precipitation, volatility, electrolysis, solvent extraction, ion exchange resins, paper chromatography, etc., have been used in either carrier or carrier-free separations for individual radionuclides or for the separation of groups of radionuclides. Publications during 196062 on these separation techniques can be categorized as follows: Precipitations. Pushkarev, Skrylev, and Bagretsov (961) report on the use of hydrosol and gelatin precipitations as a means of concentrating radionuclides. Spitsyn and Gromov (1087) report on the effect of radioactivity on the adsorption properties of a precipi-

tate. Radionuclide separations by precipitations from dilute solutions have been recorded by Sturzer (1114). Many articles show that specific radionuclide separations can be made either by direct precipitation or by coprecipitation as carbonyls (866), fluorides (855, 1152), hydroxides (612), mandelates (783), basic phosphates (21), sulfates ( I l B ) , sulfides (63S), phosphomolybdates (164), oxalates (165, 196, 411-413, 566), phenylarsonates (615),and polyuranates (614). Dipicrylamine (677) and other organic reagents (642) have been used in separating specific radionuclides. Active manganese has also been used as a coprecipitant in the separation of alkaline earths (300). Volatility. Wish (1625) reports on the use of a distillation method in the quantitative determination of fission ruthenium from mixtures of other fission products. Other reports and S35 by have been made on 1132 distillation methods (712, 951). A vacuum distillation technique has been used by-DeVoe (277) in the radiochemical separation of cadmium. Electrolysis. The rare earth elements (902, 1066-1068), the actinides (481, 798), radium (618, 619), and indium (994) have been separated by use of amalgam exchange reactions a t a mercury cathode. Electrolytic methods have also been used to separate uranium (993, l o l l ) , neptunium ( l o l l ) , Plutonium ( l o l l ) ,americium ( l o l l ) , cesium and strontium (179, 180, 912). An internal electrolysis method for use in carrier-free separations has also been described (505). Solvent Extraction. Freiser (349) has recently reported on the general use of solvent extraction in radiochemical separations. Moore (816) has written an excellent Nuclear Science Series Monograph, entitled “LiquidLiquid Extractions with High-Molecular Weight Amines.” Specific liquidliquid extractions of radionuclides from acid systems by use of TTA (586,1184), T B P (442, 514, 516, 521, 522, 749, 805, 874, 1071, 1167), tri-n-octylamine (572, 603, 1056), triisoactylaniine (814), and diisobutyl carbinol (717) have also been reported. Other systems, based on extractions with hexone (759), di(ethy1hexy1)phosphoric acid (856), dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (513, 515, 858), n-benzoylphenylhydroxylamine (29), acid alkyl phosphates (219), dibutyl phosphate (295), alkylamines (503, 518, 520, 522), diisobutyl ketone (557), and phoshho-organic compounds (922, 928, 929) have been describrd. Other liquid-liquid extractions and methods have been reported by Kauffmann and Blank (664), hIcCown and Larsen (770), Boyd, Larson, and hIotta (162, 153), Butler and Ketchen ( 1 9 4 , Coleman, Kappelmann, and Weaver (239), Kimura (692), Knoch and Lindner (60S,

604), Kuznetsov and Blekhta (643)) Maeck and others (731), Nathans, Greenberg, and Feder (859), Nikol’skii (873), Palsheim and Zolotov (913), Panova and Levin (914), Pushkarev, Skrylev, and Bagretsov (962), Rimshaw and Malling (981),Ross and Hahn (989), Ryabchikov and Volynets (IOOd), Shevchenko and others (1055-1057), Stary (1097),Stary and Ruzicka (1O98), Ueno and Chang ( l l @ ) , and Warren and Suttle (1186). Chromatography. Ion exchange systems using organic and inorganic exchangers, ascending and descending paper chromatography techniques, electrophoresis and vapor phase chromatography continue to be used in methods of separating radioactive elements. Typical of the publications are the following: General reports on the use of ion exchangers in separating radionuclide mixtures, particularly the fission products, have been given by Seyb and Hermann (1047), Martinola and Wegner (754), Crouch and Swainbank (263), Dunkel (290), Ho (479), and Stronski (1112). Several reports on specific group separations by ion exchange resins have been made (125, 137, 965, 957, 958, 1014, 1046). Schumacher and Streiff’s (1040) method of ion-focusing exchange has been applied to fission product analysis by Shvedov, Ten, and Stepanov (1070), by Schumacher and Fried1 (1038,1039), and by Schumacher and Streiff (1041). Schumacher (1037) gives additional information on its use in radiochemical analysis. Anion exchange resins have been used to separate protoactinium (948), Th234 and/or U (115, 622-624), Ygo-SrgO and La140 (797), Sr90 (474), the rare earths (299), trivalent actinides and lanthanides (488), and Nbg5and Ta1E2 (1084). Cation exchange resins have been used to separate thorium (1109), zirconium (583), uranium (584, 585), scandium (593), ruthenium (450), and Pb, Ca, Sr, Ba, and Ra (320). Other anion and cation exchange resin applications have been reported by Akaishi (bo), Bogar and Lock (133), Choppin and ChethamStrode (2$8),Davis (264), Jackson and Short (528),Krawczyk (627),Llajumdar and De (738), lloeller, Leddicotte, and Reynolds (804),Roberts (982), Ryabchikov, Palei, and Alikhailova (IO&?), Stronski and Rybakow (1113), Tsubota and Kitano (1159), Wish (1223, 1224), and Dybczynski (293). Other types of ion exchangers used in analysis include silica gel (17 ) ,bentonite clays (214), beads impregnated with tri-n-octylphosphine oxide (281, 282), biotite and/or vermiculite (552, l o l a ) , activated charcoal (25), aminopolyacetic acids (363), cellulose (888),bis(Zethy1hexyl, orthophosphoric acid (121 7 ) , and humic acid (1222). The use of ion exchange films (319) and ion exchange

membranes (405) in radiochemical analysis have also been reported. General information on paper chromatography methods has been presented by Pocchiari and Rossi (949), and Levi and Danon (687). Paper chromatography separations of the fission products (377), of R a E from radiolead (244), and of uranium (441) have been reported. A method of focusing chromatography has been used by Shinagawa, Kiso, and Oyoshi (1064) to separate fission products. Adloff (10) reports on the separation of radioelements by use of zirconium-impregnated papers. Paper chromatography with liquid ion exchangers has also been used (615). Radiochromatography separations of organomercury compounds (976), uranium in soils and plant ash (960), and niobium and tantalum from titanium (134) have also been reported. Kawamura (668), Pucar and Jakovac (969), and Shvedov and Stepanov (1069) report on the use of continuous electrophoresis methods of analysis. A method of focusing electrophoresis has been reported by Maydan, Toicher, and Zeidenberg (765). General information on the techniques of gas chromatography and its applications to the determination of radioactive elements has been given by Adloff (11). Vapor phase chromatography techniques have been described for the analysis of C14-labeled (197, 198) and Ha-labeled organic compounds (198, 199, 283). Fission Products. This particular section is concerned with reported analysis methods used for separating and assaying the fission product radionuclides, either in groups or as single elements. Many of the papers, particularly the Radiochemistry Monographs, mentioned in the general information for this section could also be considered here. Group separations of the fission products are exemplified by the reports of Boni ( I % ) , Bub, Vie, and TS’ebb (179, 180), Dunkel (290), Getoff i377), Ishikashi and others (519), Kiba, Ohashi, and Maeda (588), and Kuroda and Menon (635). Boni (137) used an anion exchange method to separate a t least 20 of the fission products (and Kp239p C060, Fe59, Cr51, and Z n 9 in process and environmental samples. Bub and his coworkers (179,180) report on the use of electrodialysis methods using ” 0 3 , H F , and oxalic acid. H F gave the best transfer ratios for most of the fission products investigated. The other papers cited showed that cation exchange resin separations (290) paper chromatography (377), extractions of the cupferrates into chloroform (588), and coprecipitation of ferric hydroxide (519) were usable methods for the analysis of fission products. Of some genmal interest are the reports by Campbell, ~

Ortner, and Anderson (207) on the thermogravimetric analysis of the fission product oxides and nitrates and by Mullins, Leary, and Maraman (835) on the removal of fission product elements by slagging. Nore specific separations for individual fission products can be considered in the following manner : BARIUhl-140 AND STROSTIUhI-89, -90. Eulitz (320) reports that Ballo (and Srsg*90and RaD) can be quantitatively separated in one process by gradient elutions from cation exchangers. U s umi and Taketatsu (797) have used anion exchange resins in the carbonate form to separate Ba140 and La140. Other methods for separating radiobarium have been reported by Hunter and Perkins, (492), by Lane (649).and by Reed, Myers, and Sabol (973). Groos ( @ I ) , Hardy and Klein (443), and Lieser and Hild (695) present brief surveys of the chemical properties of SrS9and Srgoand of the methods by which they can be separated from other radioactive species. Kolarik and Kourim (612) report on the use of iron and aluminum hydroxide to absorb Sr90YgOfrom solution. Srqohas also been separated from urine by coprecipitation with calcium oxalate (539); from barium and calcium with AhOz (300); from aqueous solutions of the fission products with aininonium phosphomolybdate (164); and with polyuranates (615).

Delvin, Palmer, and Upson (268) used similar techniques in determining total uranium and U235in aluminum-uranium fuel elements. Alkire (32) has also used gamma spectrometry in the continuous analysis of irradiated uranium process systems. UZ3& enrichment in various substances has also been determined by a nondestructive gamma spectrometric method (250). The gamma spectra of plutonium-242 (f136),of americium-241 (7.44), and of fission products (761) have also been determined by nondestructive analysis. Cartwright and Robbins (212 ) report on sources of error in the determination of U235 by gamma spectrometry. The radium, thorium, and potassium content of rocks have been measured from an aircraft by means of a gamma spectrometer (80). Kaul and Muth (566) report on the determination of radium by scintillation spectrometry. Gamma spectrometry has also been used to determine radioactive contaminants in foods (361). Milk has been analyzed for 1131, Cs13’, and J3aI4O by gamma spectrometry (429). Cs13’ in KM-Cs137 mixtures (900) and in rain water (1126) has been measured by a method of nondestructive gamma spectrometry. Counting methods for determining the total gamma radioactivity in sand, sea silt, mud, seaweed, vegetation, fish-flesh, and Faters have also been described (1161). Gamma spectrometry methods, emplo>-ing 3 X 3 inch NaI(T1) crystals, have b w n used in determining neutroninduced radionuclides in radioactive rocks (I), silicon (236), and beryllium (166). Sodium and potassium radionuclides in neutron-activated materials (8) and gold in blood (280) have been determined by nondestructive gamma spectrometric methods. Mahmoud and El-Kesr (736)have measured the gamma spectra of Co60 and XaZ4 through cadmium. Radioactivity Data Processing systems. Computation process systems for resolving the spectra obtained in gamma-ray spectrometry of irradiated materials also has been seriously considered during the period of this review. Many investigations offer information on computer data processing. For instance, Rosholt and Dooley (987) report on automatic measurements and computations for the radiochemical analysis of alpha-emitting radionuclides. VOL 34. NO. 5. APRIL 1962

Anders and Beamer (56) have used a digital computer to resolve timedependent gamma spectra of neutroninduced radionuclide mixtures. Borgholthaus (14O), Chester and Burrus (220),Henveld and Borgholthaus (467), Fite and his associates (334-336), Kuykendall and others (638-640), and West and Johnston (1200)also report on computer techniques for gamma spectral analyses. Gilbert (386) has presented a mathematical analysis system for the simultaneous estimation of several radioactive elements in a mixture. Nostrand, Favale, and Winton (877)), Nostrand and others (8781, and Rolf (985) report on computer analysis of complex gamma-ray spectra. Nostrand and others (878) report on the use of a least squares computer program. Rolf (985) and West and Johnston (1200) have used an IBM-650 computer in their work. Kuykendall and his associates (658440) and Strickfaden and Kloepper (1110) have used an IBM-704 digital computer in their work. Harvey (448) used analog computer techniques in processing his counting data and for solving the simultaneous equations derived for his I\ ork. USE

OF RADIOISOTOPES I N ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY

Considerable interest has continued to be expressed in creating and employing analytical techniques based on the production of a radioisotope, or the phenomena associated with its decay, in analysis problems. These applications include activation analysis and radiometric analysis methods based on radioactive reagents, isotope dilution, and the use of radioactive tracers in developing analytical methods. The remainder of this review is concerned with a general summary of these radioisotope applications. Activation Analysis. T h e interest in the use of activation analysis as a technique to solve many analytical problems concerned with the determination of most of t h e elements in submicrogram or microgram quantities continues to increase. Most technical meetings concerned with analysis problems usually include a number of papers on activation analysis applications in their programs. Likewise, many new articles on its uses-at least 345-have appeared in print during 1960-61. With regard to technical meetings, i t should be noted that the International litomic Energy Agency sponsored Conference on the Use of Radioiostopes in the Physical Science and Industry, Copenhagen, September 1960, devoted a large part of its program to activation analysis. The proceedings of this meeting report the determination of sulfur

in high neutron absorption materials by fast neutron activation analysis (381), autoradiographic determination of inclusions and segregrations in metals ( 7 8 9 , the analysis of ancient silver coins (19), the analysis of high-purity metals (23), the determination of silicon (502), and the determination of the Re-Os ages of iron meteorites (464). Special topics about the use of coincidence gamma-ray spectrometry (rod), a system of automated activation analysis (639),fast radiochemical separations (178), portable neutron generators (778), beryllium determinations with a photoneutron source of SbIz4 gammas (432), and nuclear geophysics in prospecting for ore and coal deposits (183) are also included in the proceedings of this Conference. Probably the most outstanding meeting on activation analysis held during the period cited was the 1961 International Conference on Modern Trends in Activation Analysis. This Conference was cosponsored by the International Atomic Energy Agency, The Division of Isotopes Development, United States Atomic Energy Commission, and the Activation Analysis Research Laboratory of the Agricultural and Nechanical College of Texas, and it was held at College Station, Tex. in December 1961. Papers concerned with activation techniques, gamma-ray spectrometry, computer data processing, and general and specific activation analysis applications were presented. At least 250 representatives from 16 foreign countries, Canada, Mexico, and the United States were present for the Conference. The proceedings will be issued early in 1962. With regard to published literature, it should be noted that the proceedings of the Activation Analysis Symposium sponsored by the International Atomic Energy Agency in June 1959, have now been published. Papers reporting on radioactivation analysis with nuclear reactors and particle accelerators (245, 668) in geochemistry (465),in industrial applications (686), and in biochemistry and medicine (682) appear as part of these proceedings. In addition, general applications on its use in determining minor constituents in steels (486) and in aluminum and iron (22) have also been reported. Reports on its use in specific applications for tantalum in high tantalum-ferro alloys (382), for mercury in and a variety of sample materials (104), for intermetallic diffusion in gold-lead systems are also included in these proceedings. A special report on the use of a gammaray spectrometer to determine positron and gamma-ray cascade-emitting nuclides also appears in the proceedings (703). K i t h regard to more general informa-

tion on activation analysis, i t must Le noted that many more review articles on applications have appeared during 196061. Bock-Werthmann and Schulse (132) report on the literature available through mid-1961. Gibbons and his colleagues (380) have issued a first supplement to their bibliography which was first reported by Neinke (777). Other reviewtype articles on activation analysis include those by Aten (67, 68),as well as those by Born (141), Brandt (269), Broda (166), Cornuet (246),Daabek (255j, Duyckaerts (291), Gibbons (378), Girardi (389), Hearle (453), Herforth and Koch (4629, Ionescu (507), Kauer (663), Laverlochere and Martinelli (663), Mapper (747). hlesler (784), Morris (819), Morzek (82B), Mullins and Leddicotte (841), X e s e (871), Okada (890, 691, 896), Rakovic (967), Schmitt (1026), Schulze (1036), and Vorres ( 1 1 7 7 ) . Broda (166) reviews some of the uses of activation analysis in biochemistry. Similar articles revien-ing biochemical applications have also been presented by Ogburn and his coworkers (886) and Stephens (1104). Shibuya and &higaki (1058) report on the method's use in agriculture and biology. Reiser and Schneider (974) specifically review the prospects for the use of activation analysis in the steel industry, and Baranov and his coworkers (87) emphasize its use in the analysis of pure materials. Additional reviews of its potentials in solving analytical problems for trace elements in semiconductor materials (2022) and metals (611, 828) have also been published. Erwall ( S I S ) , Klofutar (601), and Leveque (686) describe how it can be used in specific industrial problems. Revien-s on the use of activation analysis in geochemistry have been published by Napper (748), Moorbath (812), Rassoul, Langhoff, and Herr (911), Simon (8077j , Smales and Wager (IOSO),and TKnchester (1218). General and specific information on its use in petroleum exploration and research has been presented by Caldwell and hlills (201) and by Guinn and his colleagues (422-425). Burrill and associates (287, 188) and Kagner, Campanile, and Guinn (1178) discuss the use of a Van de Graaff neutron source in various applications and in materials testing and research. Colenian (237) has recently revieived the potentials of fast neutron activation analysis. Activation analysis applications by use of a source of 14-m.e.v. nuetrons have also been cited by Lbov and Kaumova (655). The use of sources of 1.5-m,e.v. protons (?68) and other charged particles (760, 1078, 1220) in analysis problems have also been discussed. General information about the use of short-lived isotopes in activation

analyses has recently been presented by Anders (53), Kamemoto and his coworkers (556), Monnier (808-81 1), S a k a i and others (852-864),Okada (896), and Pierce (936). Anders (55) also has reported on the sensitivities obtained from a Van de Graaff accelerator neutron source. Additional sensitivity data for thermal neutrons have been presented by Laverlochere (652). The activation analysis handbook prepared by Koch (BOT), first reported by Neinke ( Y E ) , has now been issued by Academic Press, Kew York, as a bound publication. It contains a large amount of information about neutron particle reactions and thcrmal neutron sensitivities. NUCLEAR PARTICLE SOURCES.Meinke's recent review on nucleonic applications (777) gave excellent summary information on the availability of neutron sources-reactors, accelerators, and low cost laboratory generators. A large number of the 1015 cost generators have been put into operation. Typical of the evaluations of the potentials of these sources in routine applications are those that have been made by Anders (53,55), Kuykendall and Wainerdi (633)) and 1Ieinke (778). Radioisotope - beryllium sources (RaBe) are still used in some activation analysis applications (636, 637). The uschfulness of Van de Graaff accelerators as neutron sources (187, 188, 237, 422425) has already been cited. Lima and his coworkers (698) report on the use of a swimming pool reactor as a source of neutrons for activation analysis applications. More recently, a series of studies has been inade by Lukens, Otvos, Wagner, a n d Guinn (721, 910) on the use of photoexcitation processes in activation analysis. Some of the radionuclides produced as metastable isomers of these processes become very specific means for determining a n element. RADIOCHEhlICAL S F P l R A r I O N S FOR Acr~va~A r oP ~ A L Y ~ I SI\Iost . of the A-uclear Science Series Jf onographs mentioned in t h e earlier portions of this article contain radiochemical procedures t h a t have been used in specific activation analysis applications. Many of the other articles cited in this review give detailed radiochemical separation procedures for the activation analysis of interest. Other sources of information on radiochemical procedures used in activation analysis include the Oak Ridge Yational Laboistory Master Analytical Manual (884). Typical of the procedures appearing in this Manual are those for antimony (664) and nickel (839). Special information about the us(' of radiochemical sciparation procedures in activation analysis (666, 667, 726, 778, 1014) and the subsequent nst' of information obtained from a radiochemical analysis in the calculation

of activation analysis data (665) also appear in this Manual. Additional information on radiochemical procedures used in the activation analysis program at Oak Ridge National Laboratory has also been presented by Mullins (837). Benson (111) has completed additional studies on the use of neutron activation chromatography to determine small amounts of phosphorus in biochemical specimens. Strickland and Benson (1111) report on the paper chromatography analysis of phosphatides in mammalian cell fractions. Goto, Ikeda, and Amano (404) report on the use of organic agents in activation analysis. Ferenczy (327) and Hainaguchi and cou-orkers (436) have used polarography in activation analysis applications. RADIOACTIVITY JIEASUREMESTS IX ACTIVATIOS AKALPSIS. hIany of the radioactivity measurements used to complete an activation analysis employ the use of a gamma spectrometer with a multichannel pulse height analyzer. Such measurements are made either as a direct analysis of the irradiated material or following the radiochemical processing of the sample. The gamma spectrometry reports by Crouthamel (254, Gatrouis and Crouthamel (369), Anders (54), and Kamemot0 and others (556) give much usable information for activation analysis applications. More specific reports on the use of gamma spectrometry in activation analysis have been given by Abdullaev ( l ) ,Adamski and others (8), Bate and Leddicotte (94), Cojocaru and others (235), Diebel and Garrett (280), Leveque (685),Lima and others (698), Ljunggren (7'02, 703),May (763), and Westermark and Sjoestrand (1203). The reports by Fite and others (334-336) and Kuykendall and others (638-640) exemplify the possibilities of using computers to process the gamma spectrometry data obtained from activation analyses. hlateosin and XcKeown (157) have provided an up-todate tabulation of the gamma-rays emitted by radioactive nuclides arranged in order of increasing energy. Dzhelepov and Peker (296) tabulate many of the decay schemes of radioactive nuclei. All of these reports are useful referencm for activation analysis applications. Although considerable intcrests exist for gamma spectrometry uscs in analysis, many of the applications cited below continue to use gross gamma counting and beta radioactivity determinations. Each of the reports cited should be consulted for the particular radioactivity measurement method used. Activation Analysis Applications. The determinations of trace elements in metals and alloys have been t h e prerequisite for a large number of activation analysis applications. Many

of the geochemical and biochemical interests in trace element distributions also are being attacked by activation analysis methods. Articles from each of these areas are specifically cited below. I n addition, articles on miscellaneous applications and specialized uses of activation analysis are cited. LIIETALS AKD h L L O Y S .

(27.1 d ) . The gamma radiations (0.320 m.e.v.) of Pa223 are measured by means of a small NaI crystal as the thorium oxide particles settle by sedimentation. Particle sizes as small as 0.7 micron have been determined by this method. One of these reports (92) also generally describes a centrifugation method used to measure particle sizes as small as 0.02 micron in the same sample system. An activation analysis method used to determine particle-size distributions in samples of UOz has bsen described by Iwamoto (5%’). Amiel (46) reports on the use of a n activation analysis method involving a measurement of delayed-neutron emission to determine parts per million of uranium and thorium in a variety of sample materials. Amiel and Peisach (47) have also used reactor neutrons to determine t’he deuterium concentrations of heavy water by the reaction 0’6 (H2,n) FI7. Other articles have described activation analysis methods of determining stable barium in SrQ0solutions ( 8 3 3 , carbon in iron by proton bombardment (1076), carbon, oxygen, and silicon in solids by 15-1n.e.v. deuterons (12,?0), oxide film thickness by proton activation (1127), and sulfur by iast neutron activation (381). Neutron activation analysis has also been used to measure diffusion coefficients (1006) and to calibrate fast neutron flux areas in a nuclear reactor (266). Tracers a n d Natural Activities in Analysis. The introduction of a radioactive-labeled material into a sample system or a mezisurenient of the natural radioactivity of a system become very useful techniques for rapid a n d economical methods of analyses for elements or materials. I n this reviewer’s opinion, radiometric analysis methods,“ involving either isotope dilution n-ith radioactive tracers, labeled reagents for use in chemical techniques such as titrations, or the use of radioactive tracers for procedure development have much use ill analytical chemistry. Preformed radioactive For the purpose of this review the term “radiometric’’is used in the following broad context: “An analytical technique involviiig a radioactivity measurement in which the measurement itself is the controlling factor.” K e understand that this word, and also the self-defining “radioreagent,” mill be considered by several nomenclature committees within the next year. Our policy as to the use of these and other radiochemical terms may be modified accordingly. (1

sources, either as alpha, beta, or gamma radiation sources, or radioisotopic-beryllium neutron sources, also can be useful in meeting many analysis requirements. Driscoll (286, 287) and Vlasova and others (1173) have presented a general discussion on techniques that can be used in radiometric analysis. More specific reports on the use of radiometric analysis techniques can be categorized: ISOTOPE DILUTIOK ANALYSES. Since this technique ineasures the yield of a nonquantitative process, only simple equipment is required. Glassware and mechanical equipment common to an analysis laboratory are adequate. Inexpensive counting systems for measuring radioactivity are readily obtained from electronic equipment suppliers. Alimarin and Bilinovitch (27) review the principles of isotope dilution and discuss its applications to the analysis of inorganic substances. Weiler (1191) reports on the accuracy of the isotope dilution method. Stary and Ruzicka (1099) have used a n ion exchange technique in an isotope dilution method for iron using Fej9. Solvent extraction (1001) and microcoulometry (998-1000) have also been used in isotope dilution methods. Other isotope dilution applications reported have used ZnE5and CoEoto determine zinc and cobalt in metals (241); Tals2 to determine tantalum in metals (40); Hf181 to determine hafnium in zirconium (42, 376); C136to determine microgram amounts of chloride (644); Se7j to determine selenium in organics (573); Ag1l0m to determine small amounts of silver (998-1000) ; Zrgj, Xbg5,and Ta1R2to determine zirconium, niobium, and tantalum in steels (38, 39); thorium isotopes in dating of marine sediments (54); and C060 to determine cobalt in steels (.47jl 1089). Kebster and others (1189, 1190) report on the use of U2” and Paz4*in isotope dilutions by mass spectrometry. ANALYSES WITII L.4BELED REAGENTS. Radiometric methods employing reagent solutions or solids tagged with a radioactive species hare been used to determine the solubility of barium tungstate (1240), ruthenium hydroxide (I&?), phosphotungstates (1088), and neodymium oxalate (15.4). Polythionates (1032), lead (1166), fluoride ( 8 4 4 , and organic precipitants (1193) have also been analyzed by radiometric methods using radioreagents. Co60-labeled hexamine trichloride has been used to determine beryllium (269) and thallium (606). Tagged Co(CH3COO)^ solutions have been used to determine fatty acids on paper chroTritium-labeled matograms (909). lithium-aluminum hydride has been used to determine hydrogen (224, 387).
