Abstract:

The paper reviews the author's experience acquired and achievements made in methodological developments of neutron activation analysis (NAA) of mostly biological materials. These involve epithermal neutron activation analysis, radiochemical neutron activation analysis using both single-and multi-element separation procedures, use of various counting modes, and the development and use of self-verification principle. The role of NAA in the detection of analytical errors is discussed and examples of applications of the procedures developed are given.
