Radioisotopes 90Sr, 241Am, 240Pu
Detection by alpha, liquid scintillation
Description

This publication describes a combined procedure for the sequential determination of 90Sr,241Am and Pu radioisotopes in environmental samples. The method is based on the chemical separation of strontium, americium and plutonium using ion exchange chromatography, extraction chromatography and precipitation followed by alpha spectrometric and liquid scintillation counting detection.
