title: The need for new SI-traceable magnesium isotopic reference materials.
abstract: Recent measurements revealed that commercial magnesium standard solutions showed isotopic abundance variations, which cannot clearly be distinguished from each other by calibrating against the only available isotopic reference material, SRM 980, or reference materials made from SRM 980 like IRMM-009. Therefore new SI-traceable magnesium isotopic reference materials are required.
