Monte Carlo neutronic simulations for a new approach to parametric INAA and Mo-99 production feasibility at MURR
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
[kappa][subscript 0]. The model was also combined with MONTEBURNS and ORIGEN to test the feasibility of Mo[superscript 99] production at MURR from fissioning LEU. Results from a 5-gram low-enriched uranium target show predictions of Mo[superscript 99] end...
Determination of trace elements levels in plasma from larvae in the course of baculoviral and bacterial infections by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
elements of Mg, Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn and Mo levels in the plasma from the tobacco budworm, Heliothis virescens, following infection of the insect with a baculovirus (Helicoverpazea single nucleopolyhedrovirus (HzSNPV)) and bacteria (Micrococcus lysodeikticus...
Investigation of K₀ NAA at MURR and investigation of the toenail as a biomonitor for Mg, Zn, Cu, Se and Hg
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Chapter 1: The K[subscript 0] method of neutron activation analysis (INAA) requires a stable core and neutron flux parameterization. The stability of ...
Applications of elemental analysis for archaeometric studies : analytical and statistical methods for understanding geochemical trends in ceramics, ochre and obsidian
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Three areas are covered in this dissertation: elemental analysis of Caborn-Welborn ceramics, elemental analysis and geochemical characterization of ochres, and construction and implementation of a portable XRF instrument ...
Evaluating the suitability of the human toenail as a biomonitor for manganese status: the one source cohort
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Numerous studies have demonstrated that the human toenail is a reliable biomonitor for the intake of Se and other elements. The objective of this study was to evaluate the hypothesis that Mn intake is reflected in toenail ...
