RADIOACTIVATION ANALYSIS. APPLICATION TO THE DETERMINATION OF IODINE, MERCURY, COPPER, MANGANESE, AND ZINC IN BIOLOGICAL MATERIALS (in French)
After a discussion of the principles of radioactivation, the possibility of applying this technique to the determination of certain oligoelements in biological materials was studied. Blood iodine was determined with a precision of 5%, and the final sensitivity of the method is of the order of 10/sup -10/ g. The plasmic and blood cell mercury was also determined in 14 normal subjects. The values found were 3.1 plus or minus 1.7 x 10/sup -3/ mu g/g of plasma, 7.7 plus or minus 4.1 x 10/sup -3/ mu g/g of blood cells, and 5.2 plus or minus 2.2 x 10/sup -3/ mu g/g of total blood. Finally a technique for the simultaneous measurement of plasmic copper and manganese is described. The possibility for the simultaneous determination of zinc, copper, and manganese in biological liquids is discussed. (tr-auth)
