Abstract

The conditions of241Am separation from bone by coprecipitation with BiPO4 were studied. It was found that by coprecipitation with BiPO4 241Am can be separated with high yield from different amount of bone. The main condition of the achievement of a high yield is a low Fe/III/ concentration in solution at americium coprecipitation.
