Abstract

In this study, we introduce the stable isotopic results of water using a recently installed high sensitivity isotope ratio mass spectrometry (HS-IRMS) system at the Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources (KIGAM). As a result of analytical method validation through an international proficiency test, the 2020 WICO (Water Isotope Inter-Comparison), organized by the International Atomic Energy Agency, the KIGAM IRMS laboratory showed satisfactory performance. Furthermore, stable isotopic compositions of bottled water samples from South Korea were measured using the HS-IRMS with a high temperature conversion elemental analyzer, and this method was re-validated and confirmed by a comparison with stable isotope results obtained using an equilibrium method.
