14 MeV neutron activation analysis, based on the 82Se(n,2n)
Se81m nuclear reaction, has been investigated for the measurement
of selenium in environmental waters. The levels of the selenium
present in environmental waters and the relatively high limit of
detection achievable with fast neutron activation analysis
resulted in the need to develop a concentration procedure for the
extraction of selenium from large volumes of environmental water
before neutron activation. [Continues.]
