Estimation of Arsenic in Teeth by Activation Analysis

GEORGE S. NIXON 1 and HAMILTON SMITH 1

1 University of Glasgow Dental School

The activation analysis method described is a quick and accurate technic for the estimation of arsenic in biological materials. After nitric/sulfuric acid digestion of the activated sample, the Gutzeit separation is used in conjunction with an estimation by using a Geiger tube accepting liquid samples. The method has the advantage that very small samples can be tested without difficulty. Using this method, the arsenic content of 25 teeth was estimated, and a mean value of 0.060 ppm was obtained.
