“…Acid matrix-matched multielement calibration standards were prepared by dilution of certified primary standards (Spectrapure Standards AS, Oslo, Norway). The following isotopes were measured (oxygen reaction mass shift is marked with r, on-mass was measured otherwise): 75r As, 209 bismuth (Bi), 114 Cd, 140r Ce, 59 Co, 63 copper (Cu), 52 Cr, 153r Eu, 158r Gd, 69 gallium (Ga), 202 Hg, 56 iron (Fe), 139r La, 55r manganese (Mn), 144r Nd, 60 Ni, 206+207+208 Pb, 195 platinum (Pt), 141r Pr, 121 Sb, 45r Sc, 107 silver (Ag), 120 Sn, 159r Tb, 203 thallium (Tl), 51r vanadium (V), 182 tungsten(W), 89r Y and 66 zinc (Zn). The element concentrations of Pb were calculated using the sum of the isotopic net signals (marked with +).…”
