Microextraction–TQ–ICP–MS for the Direct Analysis of U and Pu from Cotton Swipes
The microextraction sampling technique was integrated with triple quadrupoleinductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (TQ–ICP–MS) to directly sample and measure the isotopic compositions of uranium (U) and plutonium (Pu) from cotton swipes. Once extracted, the U/Pu were directed into the TQ–ICP–...

Flow rates were optimized (0.3 mL min–1 CO2 and 5 mL min–1 He) in the reaction cell of the ICP–MS system to maximize the Pu signal while minimizing U interferences (i.e., 238U+ tail and 238UH+) at m/z 239. Low levels of Pu (∼2 pg) were deposited on a cotton swipe along with U at concentrations ranging from 20 to 200 ng. The 240Pu/239Pu ratio was measured with <7% relative difference from the certified value at all U concentrations. Major and minor U isotope ratios were also measured with <4% relative difference. This highlights that the microextraction–TQ–ICP–MS method can extract a mixed U/Pu sample directly from a cotton swipe and measure both isotopic systems without chemical separation.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0003-2700</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1520-6882</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1021/acs.analchem.3c01022</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Washington: American Chemical Society</publisher><subject>Carbon dioxide ; Chemical separation ; Cotton ; extraction ; Flow rates ; Helium ; Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry ; INORGANIC, ORGANIC, PHYSICAL, AND ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY ; ions ; Isotope ratios ; isotopes ; Mass spectrometry ; Mass spectroscopy ; organic polymers ; plants ; Plutonium ; Quadrupoles ; Sampling methods ; Solid surfaces ; Uranium</subject><ispartof>Analytical chemistry (Washington), 2023-10, Vol.95 (43), p.15867-15874</ispartof><rights>2023 American Chemical Society</rights><rights>Copyright American Chemical Society Oct 31, 2023</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><oa>free_for_read</oa><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-a380t-6bb87bca52f04ee05c1baed0bff30d49b80e449256dd1f387cb6b81b8106b9d33</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-a380t-6bb87bca52f04ee05c1baed0bff30d49b80e449256dd1f387cb6b81b8106b9d33</cites><orcidid>0000-0002-0740-0627 ; 0000-0002-8266-6484 ; 0000000246333009 ; 0000000228679073 ; 0000000207400627 ; 0000000337797730 ; 0000000282666484 ; 0000000181012422</orcidid></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><linktopdf>$$Uhttps://pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021/acs.analchem.3c01022$$EPDF$$P50$$Gacs$$H</linktopdf><linktohtml>$$Uhttps://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.analchem.3c01022$$EHTML$$P50$$Gacs$$H</linktohtml><link.rule.ids>230,314,776,780,881,2752,27055,27903,27904,56716,56766</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.osti.gov/servlets/purl/2205442$$D View this record in Osti.gov$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Bradley, Veronica C.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Ticknor, Brian W.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Dunlap, Daniel R.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Zirakparvar, N.
