title: Determination of trace elements in tissue of human uterine cancer by instrumental neutron activation analysis.
abstract: In this article, the low-temperature freeze-drying pretreated technique and instrumental neutron activation analysis were used to determine 29 trace elements in samples of human uterine cancer tissue. The content of these trace elements in uterine cancer tissue was compared with that in cervicitis tissue and in healthy tissue, respectively. Preliminary results indicated that significant differences in contents of Au, I, and Se were observed in these tissues.
