Dear listmembers,
from next year on we want to start on-line water analysis (delta18O,
deltaD) with a TC/EA (equipped with a liquid autosampler) coupled to a
MAT 253.
We know the publication of Gehre et al. (2004) about continous flow
analysis of water sample but we would like to get in contact with people
who already use this method successfully.
At the moment we are discussing intensively how to do the calibration of
the system with SMOW, SLAP and GISP and how to store these reference
materials after the ampule has been opened: Is it better to store it in
a large bottle or vial (25 ml, glas or plastic?) and to reopen this
bottle regularly for calibration checks or should we split the water in
for example 1 ml portions and store it in very small vials?
How often do you check your system with these RMs?
How many secondary standards do you use, what?s the difference in their
isotopic composition and how did you produce them?
Probably a lot of questions will rise during the next months and we will
be glad about any information, literature or warnings....
Thanks in advance and have a nice day
Ulrike Schulte
