Multielemental Chemical Analysis of Elements in Mandibular Bone and Teeth in the Rat

(PDF)

I. NĚMEC, V. SMRČKA, M. MIHALJEVIC, J. MAZÁNEK, J. POKORNÝ

The original article was published in Folia Biologica (Praha) Volume 64, No. 3 (2018), 84-96.

There is a typing error in the name of the author M. MIHALJEVIC, which should be spelled MAHALJEVIČ (on p. 84 and in the Contents page).

The last two sentences in the chapter Chemical analysis (p. 85) should read the following:


The incorrect printed version:
Deionized water from MilliQPlus (Millipore, USA) were used to prepare the solutions. The contents of Na, Mg, Al,
K, Ca, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Rb, Sr, Y, Mo, Cd, Sn, Sb, Ba, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho,
Er, Tm, Yb, Lu, Tl, Pb, Bi, and U in the mineral residues were determined using inductively coupled plasma mass
spectrometry (X Series II, Thermoanalytical Germany) under the following conditions: ICP 1350 W, “peak jump“
measurement mode, measurement time 3 × 50 s, ion optics parameters optimized with Ge, Re, an Rh solution, gas
flows 13.5 l/min (cooling), 0.7 l/min (additive), 0.65 l/min (nebulizer). Measured isotopes of 72Ge, 103Re, 185Rh 20 μg
l-1 Astasol solutions (Analytika, Czech Republic) were used as internal standards.

The correct version:
