Abstract: 87Sr/86Sr isotopic ratio is one of the useful tools that can authenticate the original source of  
the natural products from the earth-created and/or geological processes. However, the effect of  
interferences in petroleum drill-holes water sample such as thickness of sample matrix or isotopic  
signal of 87Rb might cause the low precision of 87Sr/86Sr determination using quadrupole inductively  
coupled plasma spectrometry (ICP-MS). The elimination of these mentioned effects was thus studied  
by using the ion - exchange chromatography. Calcium in sample matrix was separated on anionite  
column (Bio-Rad AG1-X8 resin) in methanol medium with the high efficiency while rubidium was  
removed from strontium on cation exchange resin (Bio-Rad AG50-X8) with strontium recovery over  
99%. The isotope dilution technique with 86Sr - enriched isotopic standard solution was used for the  
control of separation process. The 87Sr/86Sr isotopic ratio was thus determined using ICP-MS with the  
signal correction by a strontium isotopic ratio standard reference material (NIST SRM 987).  
Keywords: 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratio, petroleum drill-hole water, ion exchange chromatography, ID-

strontium content in seawater is about 8 ppm  
around the oceans [4] whereas 87Sr/86Sr  
isotopic ratio in the minerals and rocks spans  
the range 0.7-4.0 [5]. This isotopic ratio in the  
ocean water is constant of 0.7092 but it is in  
the range of 0.707-0.730 in the oil-field water  
[3]. From the co-relation between 87Sr/86Sr  
ratio and concentration of total strontium  
dissolved in seawater, the original source of  
ancient water in the oil-fields would be  
authenticated [4,6]. It thus supports the  
evaluation of petroleum potential [4] in the oil-  
fields.  
I. INTRODUCTION  
Natural occurring strontium has four  
stable isotopes, 84Sr , 86Sr , 87Sr , and 88Sr with  
relatively natural abundance variations of 0.55-  
0.58%, 9.75-9.99%, 6.94-7.14% and 82.29-  
82.75%, respectively, according to IUPAC [1].  
The 87Sr isotope is generated by β decay of  
87Rb: 87Rb = 87Sr + β(haft life: 4.88×1010  
years) [2]. In the rocks and in water contacted  
with  
rocks/minerals  
for  
long  
time,  
concentration of 87Rb is rather high which  
consequently makes the radiogenic 87Sr isotope

requires the high cost equipment with  
sufficient skill of technician to prepare the  
sample and it is also the time-consuming  
method. Inductively couple plasma mass  
spectrometry (ICP-MS) also provides the  
capability to determine the isotopic  
composition of several elements in the periodic  
table together with their contents at high  
sensitivity and precision. ICP-MS (quadrupole  
type) and multi-collector (MC-ICP-MS) can  
measure many samples with high repeatability  
within short period of time, and the analyte  
price is rather inexpensive. ICP-MS is thus  
always a choice of researchers in the world to  
study stable isotope compositions [1-3,6,8,9].  
In this study, the removal of matrix and  
isobaric interferences for the quantitative  
determination of 87Sr/86Sr isotopic ratio using  
ICP-MS was focused. The matrix effect  
caused by calcium at high concentration in  
petroleum drill-holes water samples was  
eliminated by using anion exchanger (Bio-  
Rad AG1x8) in HNO3-methanol (95%)  
medium, meanwhile the isobaric effect due to  
rubidium presented in sample was removed by  
cation resin Bio-Rad AG50x8. The isotope  
dilution technique (ID) with 86Sr enriched  
isotope standard solution was applied for the  
separation control and the NIST SRM 987  
standard reference material was used for the  
signal correction of 87Sr/86Sr isotopic ratio  
measurement on ICP-MS.  
Despite of its obvious advantages, ICP-  
MS still shows  
a
disadvantage when  
determining the 87Sr/86Sr isotopic ratio due to

isobaric overlap of Rb signal at Sr isotope,  
which needs to eliminate. There exists several  
resolutions to correct the signal value for these  
two isotopes by using 85Rb and 88Sr [10,11] but  
the complete removal of Rb from Sr in  
analyzed sample is preferable with the use of  
ion-exchange chromatography [1,3,7,9-12]. In  
case of sample containing thick matrix due to  
high concentration of calcium and other  
alkaline earth elements such as rock or soil, it  
is necessary to remove these interfered major  
elements before the separation of strontium and  
rubidium [7,10-17]. The removal of calcium  
from sample matrices, especially from  
seawater was carried out with variety of  
reagents using solvent extraction or fractional  
precipitation or ion exchange [6, 8, 15-17].  
Among them, the ion exchange technique was  
recently more applicable to separate calcium  
from different sample matrices [13-17] with  
high recovery of strontium. Since calcium and  
strontium are adjacent elements in alkaline

efficiency. Each type of ion exchanger (Bio-  
Rad AG50X8, Bio-Rad AG1X8) was pre-  
conditioned by immersing 5 grams in pure  
water for completely swelled up, then loading  
them on a column. Cation exchanger (Bio-Rad  
AG50X8, H+ type) was equilibrated with 0.5M  
HNO3 solution and this column was ready for  
separation experiment. Anion exchanger (Bio-  
Rad AG1X8, Cl- type) was washed with dilute  
HNO3 at flow rate of 1mL/min until the Cl- trace  
was not detected in eluate by AgNO3 solution.  
The excess of acid was then washed out with  
pure water for next step of sample loading. The  
separation procedure on both resins can be  
summarized in the following figures.  
B. Apparatus  
The Agilent (USA) Model 7500a ICP-  
MS, controlled by Chemstation software, was  
used for the measurements. The optimized  
instrumental operating conditions are as  
follows: RF power, 1450 W; RF matching,  
1.45 V; sample uptake time, 90 s; sample  
uptake rate, 0.4 rps; sample depth, 6.4 mm; Ar

K; analyzer pressure, 3 × 104 to 2 × 103 Pa.  
The concentration of all studied  
elements was determined by external  
calibrations on ICP-MS under the optimized  
operating conditions. The certified value of  
87Sr/86Sr isotopic ratio in NIST SRM 987  
standard reference material as 0.71034 +  
0.00026 was applied for the control of isotopic  
ratio measurement on ICP-MS.

C. Procedures  
The experiments on chemical separation  
were performed at room temperature.  
Petroleum drill-holes water samples  
received from Vietnam petroleum institute,  
which contained some oil and solid residue  
were filtered and stored in plastic bottle at 4oC  
for further treatment. A certain volume of this  
water sample was taken into a glass beaker,  
2mL of concentrated HNO3 was then added  
and this mixture was gently evaporated on a  
hot plate to dryness. This residue was dissolved  
in a mixture of 0.25 M HNO3 in 95% methanol  
and made up a volume of 10 mL for separation  
experiment. A small amount of 86Sr enriched  
isotope standard was added in to sample

close distribution constants of calcium and  
strontium on cation exchange resin, which  
might cause the overlap on elution peaks of  
rubidium and strontium.  
Previous report in literature [17] showed  
that the distribution constant of calcium on  
anionic exchanger much lower than that of  
strontium in alcoholic medium. Several cations  
can adsorb on strong base anion exchange  
resins, which contain the quaternary  
ammonium group with nitrate as counter-ion  
from solutions of nitric acid in alcohol [14] and  
the order of adsorption of these cations  
depends on the distribution coefficients [13,  
14]. The phenomenon of adsorbed cations on  
anionic exchangers can only be obtained in  
solutions with highly polarized alcohol [17].  
Hence, the mixture of 0.25 M HNO3 in 95%  
methanol was selected for calcium separation  
on anion exchanger (Bio-rad AG1-X8) in our  
study. Mixed standard solutions with different  
ratios between Ca and Sr (1:1; 1:10; 1:100 and  
1:1000) were respectively loaded onto the  
anion exchange columns. The eluted fractions  
(10 ml each) were collected with the flow rate  
of 0.5 mL/min for the determination of Ca  
concentration and that of 1 mL/min for Sr  
elution. Figures 3 and 4 below gave the  
examples of elution chromatographs on mutual  
separation of calcium from strontium at various  
concentration ratios.

III. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION  
A. Study on the removal of calcium from  
sample solution using anion exchange  
chromatography  
The analysis of petroleum drill-holes  
water samples showed that chemical  
composition of this sample type was rather  
complicated with high salt matrix, in which  
the average concentration of calcium was  
about 100 mg/L (ppm) but these values of  
rubidium and strontium were about 1 and 2  
mg/L, respectively. It thus very much  
interferes with the mutual separation of small  
amount rubidium from strontium in that  
sample by ion chromatography due to the

STUDY ON THE REMOVAL OF INTERFERENCES FOR THE DETERMINATION OF 87Sr/86Sr…  
Calcium and strontium in all four cases  
were well separated from each other when the  
elution was taken part with 0.25 M HNO3 in  
95% methanol at gradient flow rate (see Fig.1).  
However, a small amount of calcium in peak  
tailing exists in some early Sr eluted fractions  
at the cases of high ratios between Ca and Sr  
such as 100:1 and 1000:1. With 1:1 and 10:1  
ratios, calcium was completely separated from  
strontium after 10 fractions of elution (100  
mL). The recovery of strontium in all cases  
was about 98%. This result is similar to other  
study with different anion exchangers  
[13,14,17].  
element in eluted solution and the result was  
shown in Table I.  
Fig. 5 Elution curve of a mixed solution  
As can be seen in Fig.5, the elution  
peak of Rb appeared latter than that of Sr in  
the same elution condition. The present  
finding is somewhat different to the former  
study [13] when other alkali metals were  
separated from mixed elements sample at  
higher flow rate and lower HNO3  
concentration.  
The separation test was also carried  
out with a mixed solution of 100 ppm Ca, 1  
ppm Sr, 1 ppm Rb under the same  
conditions in order to learn about the  
rubidium removal. The following figure  
performs the result. The recovery was  
calculated according to the content of each

The data in Table II show that the  
removal of calcium from studied sample  
reaches rather high efficiency after 5 fractions  
(100 mL) of elution, and the next 4 eluted  
fractions (80 mL) contains almost Sr and Rb,  
which will be used for the separation of Rb on  
cation exchanger.  
Mixed standard solution of rubidium  
and strontium in 0.5 M HNO3 medium (1ppm  
of each element) was loaded onto the cation  
exchanger column. The elution of mutual  
rubidium from strontium was carried out  
under gradient HNO3 concentration (1.0 M  
and 2.0 M) solutions at the rate of 0.25 and  
0.5 mL/min for Rb and Sr, respectively. The  
elution curves for these elements were shown  
in below figure.

Fig. 6 Elution curves of Rb, Sr under gradient conditions (1M HNO3 within first 7 fractions, 2M HNO3 for  
next 7 fractions)  
As can be seen from Fig.6, rubidium  
could well be separated from strontium with  
1.0 M HNO3 eluant at the low flow rate as  
0.25 mL/min. The faster elution would  
remove small amounts of strontium that  
cause the lower separation efficiency and  
recovery. Under this condition, the recovery  
of rubidium was quantitatively over 99%.  
On the other hand, the elution of strontium  
was successful with using 2.0 M HNO3  
eluant at 0.5 mL/min flow rate and the  
recovery nearly completed. That is the  
reason why the gradient conditions of eluant  
concentration and flow rate of elution  
should be applied for the quantitative  
removal of the isobaric interference caused  
by Rb on the determination of strontium  
isotope ratio.  
However, the small amount of calcium  
remained in sample solution at this stage was  
also  
considered  
when  
using  
cation  
chromatography technique for removal of Rb  
interference. The mixed solution containing 1.5  
ppm Ca, 0.5 ppm Sr and 0.25 ppm Rb was  
loaded on the cation exchanger column. The  
elution was carried out under the same  
condition as above mentioned. The elution  
curve is shown in Fig. 7.

The elution peaks from Fig.7 depict that  
almost Ca presented in mixed solution was eluted  
together with Sr meanwhile Rb was completely  
removed within the first 7 eluted fractions. It  
confirms that the small amount of Ca in sample  
solution does not interfere with the quantitative  
separation of Rb, and that the isobaric effect  
caused by Rb can be completely removed.

concentration of strontium was fixed as 100  
μg/L but the isotope ratio 86Sr/87Sr was  
various with the addition of a certain amount  
of 86Sr isotope standard solution in to the  
natural Sr standard solution (see Table II) in  
a matrix (100 mg/L Ca and 50 μg/L Rb). The  
separation procedure was repeated for all  
synthesized samples under the same  
conditions as reported above. The results  
were given in Table II.

The data in Table II show that the  
recovery of strontium for whole cases (from  
100.89% to 104.85%) seemed reliable for Sr  
analysis through the long procedure of mutual  
separation. It is thus suitable for the application

Analytical results showed that, Sr/86Sr  
isotopic ratio of petroleum drill-holes water  
samples was various with different sample  
matrix. These data relatively agreed with those,  
which were obtained from similar study [4] of  
drill-holes water in Vietnam Petroleum  
Institute, where the water samples were  
exchange  
chromatography.  
The  
anion  
exchange resin (Bio-Rad AG1X8 200-400  
mesh) was employed for the separation of  
major calcium by 0.25 M HNO3 in 95%  
methanol with Sr recovery over 99%. The  
mutual separation of rubidium and strontium  
by gradient conditions of HNO3 concentration  
and flow rate on cation exchanger (Bio-Rad  
AG50X8 200-400 mesh) was taken part with  
nearly complete Sr recovery. The validation of  
method was also studied using isotopic  
standard solution and standard reference  
material with relative correctness of the  
analyzed value about 99.41% to the certified  
value of NIST SRM 987 reference material.  
The analytical procedure was then applied for

was carried out by TIMS in over-sea  
laboratory.
