Abstract

Abstract Simultaneous isotope speciation of various Pu isotopes is difficult to achieve with conventional inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (ICP–MS) owing to isobaric interferences. In analyzing ICP tandem MS (ICP–MS/MS), CO2 gas reactions in a dynamic reaction cell (DRC) almost eliminated the background noise intensity produced by isobaric interference from isotopes originating from actinides such as Am, Cm, and U at the locations (m/z) of significant Pu isotopes (239Pu, 240Pu, 241Pu, 242Pu, and 244Pu).
