Abstract
Because the heavier isotopes of calcium occur in such low concentrations in nature, preparations enriched in calcium-43, 46 or 48 are suitable for tracing purposes. Neutron activation methods have been used for determining calcium-48 and calcium-46, but these methods require a separate determination of total calcium content. No activation method for the isotopic determination of calcium-43 has previously been reported.
