On the isolation of elemental carbon (EC) for micro-molar <sup>14</sup>C accelerator mass spectrometry: development of a hybrid reference material for <sup>14</sup>C-EC accuracy assurance, and a critical evaluation of the thermal optical kinetic (TOK) EC isolation procedure
The primary objective of the research reported here has been the development of a hybrid reference material (RM) to serve as a test of accuracy for elemental carbon (EC) isotopic (<sup>14</sup>C) speciation measurements. Such measurements are vital for the quantitative apportionment of f...
