Using the described procedure, based on dissolution of the irradiated sample, precipitation of Co with C5H10NNaS2*3H2O, extraction of the complexes formed into toluene, purification and counting by gamma spectrometry, Co was determined in biological materials at ng g-1 levels. }, title = {Determination of Cobalt in Biological Materials by RNAA Via Induced Short-lived 60mCo}, type = {}, url = {}, volume = {162}, number = {1-2}, journal = {MICROCHIMICA ACTA}, pages = {141-146}, issn = {0026-3672}, publisher = {SPRINGER WIEN}, doi = {10.1007/s00604-008-0939-8} }
