“…Usually, off-line extraction chromatography based on UTEVA® and/or TEVA® (Eichrom Technologies LLC, IL, USA) resins is applied for obtaining interference-free U and/or Pu fractions for isotope ratio measurements. [66][67][68][69][70][71][72] Other resins that have been used for radiochemical separation prior to ICP-MS measurements include the AG® 1-X2 73 (Bio-Rad Laboratories Canada Ltd, Ontario, Canada) anion exchange resin for Pu isolation, the extraction chromatography resin DGA® 74 (Eichrom Technologies LLC, IL, USA) for Am and Cm isolation, the Sr 74 (Eichrom Technologies LLC, IL, USA) resin for 90 Sr and the anion exchange AG® MP-M1 71,74 (Bio-Rad Laboratories Canada Ltd, Ontario, Canada) and extraction chromatographic TRU® 48,75 (Eichrom Technologies LLC, IL, USA) resins for isolating U and Pu fractions. A TRU® resin in combination with UTEVA®, TEVA® and Ln-resins for U, Pu and Am separation prior to the analyses of 241 Am/ 241 Pu and 240 Pu/ 236 U mother/daughter ratios for age determination purposes was for example applied by Nygren et al 76 Besides spectral interferences that result from actinide isobars, hydride ions, peak tailing, etc., heavy metal matrix elements (Pb, W, Hg, Ir, etc.…”
