Abstract
Radiochemical neutron activation analysis for the determination of Se in biological samples is described. Postirradiation chemical separatio n permits the good separation efficiency of elemental selenium (95+/-3 %) immediately after thermal neutron activation. Biological materials were decomposed by wet combustion and then elemental selenium was coll ected after adding cysteine to the resulting solution. Copyright (C) 1 996 Elsevier Science Ltd
