M.P. Semenenko Institute of Geochemistry, Mineralogy and Ore Formation of NAS of Ukraine

Laboratory of mass spectrometry of stable isotopes

Department of isotope geochemistry and mass spectrometry

    The laboratory studies the isotopic composition of carbon and oxygen. Isotopic composition of stable isotopes δ13С and δ18О measured from carbonates, graphites, organic compounds, and oxygen isotopic composition from oxygen-containing minerals.

    Sample preparation is carried out on three high-vacuum units based on chemical attachments for the MI-1201 mass spectrometer. Vacuum ~10–7 mm of mercury column. Weight of minerals 10–20 mg. The isotopy of the prepared sample is measured on a mass spectrometer MI-1201B.

 

Basic parameters of the MI-1201V mass spectrometer:

Resolution with a gas source of ions is not less than 1400.

The range of mass numbers at U – 5 kW from 1 to 600; U – 10 kW from 1 to 300.

Sensitivity ± 0,02 %.
