Abstract

A new variant of a solid-state detector adapted for estimating the10B content in biological tissue was developed. A new polymeric composition based on oligoester acrylates was used as the detector. The number of tracks is a linear function of the boron content in the concentration range 0.5–200 μg10B/g inbiological sample samples with mass 100–500 μg. The detector can be recommended for deterning10B in biological tissues, mineralogy, and agrochemistry, 3 figures, 2 references.
