Separation and purification of Th-234 on filters
| Sample Type | Filters | 
|---|---|
| Elements | Th | 
| Radioisotopes | 234Th, 228Th, 232Th, 230Th | 
| Detection by | alpha | Description | This method describes the separation and purification of samples for the analysis of 234Th, 228Th, 230Th and 232Th by alpha counting. Samples are filtered particulates from approximately 100 L of seawater and could be modified for different filter types. Procedure also provides instruction for digestion and electroplating. |
