title: Substoichiometric determination of traces of palladium by radioactive isotope-dilution analysis.
abstract: A radioactive isotope-dilution method for the determination of traces of palladium has been developed. It is based on the solvent extraction of palladium dithizonate from acid solution by means of a substoichiometric amount of dithizone in carbon tetrachloride. The separation has been applied to the determination of traces of palladium in platinum, the rocks W-1 and PCC-1 and a biological material (kale). Amounts of palladium down to 3 ng have been determined.
