Falkner and Edmond [334] determined gold at femtomolar quantities in seawater by flow injection inductively coupled plasma quadrupole mass spectrometry. The technique involves preconcentration by anion exchange of gold as a cyanide complex, [AulCNjj], using 195Au radiotracer (ti/2 = 183 days) to monitor recoveries. Samples are then introduced by flow injection into an inductively coupled plasma quadrupole mass spectrometer for analysis. The method has a detection limit of 10 fM for 4 litres of seawater preconcentrated to 1 ml, and a relative precision of 15% at the 100 fM level.

Figure 19. Plot of Li isotopic composition vs. inverse Li concentration for lakes and basinal/oilfield brines. Lakes open circle = major global lakes (Chan and Edmond 1988 Falkner et al. 1997) semi-open circle = western U.S. closed basin lakes (Tomascak et al. 2003). Oilfield brines inverted triangle = Williston basin, Saskatchewan (Bottomley et al. 2003) diamond = Israeli oilfields (Chan et al. 2002d). Mine waters (Canadian Shield basinal brines) square = Yellowknife, NWT (Bottomley et al. 1999) triangle = Sudbury, Ontario, area (Bottomley et al. 2003) star = Thompson, Manitoba, area (Bottomley et al. 2003). Average composition of seawater is included for reference.

Combinations of mineral reactions at lower temperatures and mixing with more dilute fluids are likely to result in the variations in concentration and isotopic composition in many of the continental thermal spring waters but not seen in their marine relatives. The extreme manifestation of this difference may have been generated in the dilute hot spring waters from around Lake Baikal, whose heavy isotopic compositions required extensive re-equilibration at temperatures 100-150°C (Falkner et al. 1997).

Observations that the 5 end of the mutation domain is near the transcriptional promoter stimulated speculation that the initiation of transcription is in some way involved in the generation of mutations. Betz et al. (1994) showed that the two transcriptional enhancer elements in the K locus, one in the JC intron and the other 9 kb 3 to CK, are important for effective hypermutation. The intron enhancer appeared to be absolutely required, whereas deletion of the 3 enhancer reduced but did not abolish mutation. The promoter 5 of the VK transcription start site (Falkner and Zachau, 1984 Parslow et al., 1984) was replaced by the human P-globin promoter without deleterious effect on mutation, indicating that specific promoter elements may not be required. Heavy chain transgenes with a heterologous promoter can also undergo mutation (Tumas-Brundage and Manser, 1997).
