Neutron Activation for Analyzing Elements in Material

Article Preview

Abstract:

Neutron activation analysis (NAA) is a method of nuclear technique to detect with great sensitivity the presence and concentrations of elements in materials, without, in most cases, destroying the sample analyzed. Therefore, this study aimed to study the technique of Neutron Activation Analysis (NAA). Accordingly, instrument (INAA) has been in this analyzed for determination of heavy toxic metal (Cd, Co, Fe, Pb, Cr, Zn) and others in vegetables samples. The results of heavy metal concentration analyses showed that Co, Fe, Cr could be analyzed by NAA.
