Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method is based on a sequence of twochromatographic extraction resins used to concentrate, isolate,and purify americium by removing interfering radionuclides aswell as other components of the wat

Standard labo-ratory protocol for the use of an alpha spectrometer should beused when the sample is ready

24、for counting.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is considered a rapid method whencompared to other classical methods for the determination of241Am in aqueous solutions. During the method validation ofthis method, a test batch of fourteen test samples plus qualitycontrol samples was chemical

25、ly processed in 7.5 hours.Additional time for counting the samples depends on themeasurement quality objectives.5.2 This test method is specific forAmericium-241 (241Am)in drinking water and other aqueous samples. However, if anyisotopes of curium are present in the sample, they will becarried with

26、americium during the analytical separation processand will be observed in the final alpha spectrum.5.3 This test method is capable of achieving a requiredmethod uncertainty for241Am of 0.070 Bq/L at an analyticalaction level of 0.555 Bq/L. This test method is capable ofachieving a required relative

27、method uncertainty, MR,13%above 0.555 Bq/L. This test method is capable of achieving a“required” minimum detectable concentration (MDC) of 0.055Bq/L.5.4 To attain these stated measurement quality objectives(MQOs), a sample volume of approximately 200 mLand counttime of at least 1 to 3 hours are reco

28、mmended. The sampleturnaround time and throughput may vary based on additionalproject MQOs, the time for analysis of the final counting form,and initial sample volume.

Thistest method separates these

32、radionuclides effectively.
