Fig. 1. The effect of storage time in Exetainers on (a) the concentration of nitrous oxide in a test mixture, (b) the concentration of nitrous oxide in a standard gas mixture, and (c) the enrichment of the labeled nitrous oxide (aD) in the test mixture. (LSD values are for comparing any two means at P = 0.05).

Fig. 3. The effect of storage time in Exetainers on the measured values of (a) {Delta}29R and (b) {Delta}30R in dinitrogen. (LSD values are for comparing any two means at P = 0.05).

Fig. 4. The effect of storage time in Exetainers on the values of (a) the fraction of the 15N-labeled dinitrogen (d), and (b) the enrichment of the labeled dinitrogen (15XN) calculated from the measured values of {Delta}29R and {Delta}30R. (LSD values are for comparing any two means at P = 0.05).
