Abstract

Quantitative determination of thallium and barium in aquatic environmental samples employing radiochemical neutron activation analysis technique was carried out. Cerium(IV) molybdate was used as an inorganic ion-exchanger. The accuracy, precision and sensitivity of the method was determined. The determination factor of various elements was also evaluated.
