Abstract: Accurate identification of isotopes and elements of uranium (U) and plutonium (Pu) in environmental samples from the nuclear fuel cycle is essential for environmental monitoring and safeguarding. A novel microfluidic system coupled with a multi-collecting inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (MC-ICP-MS) allows the measurement Pu and U isotope ratios in real time. The application reduces the sample volume required to less than 80 µL with required quantities of analytes being reduced from the conventional micrograms to less than nanograms. This reduction in sample and reagent volume makes the analytical process less resource-intensive and generates less waste; a significant benefit for safer and more efficient analysis operations.
