Abstract

Two studies expanding the customary use of 3M EmporeTM Rad Disks have been conducted. In the first study,226Ra and228Ra were determined simultaneously by an improved method that used a single gamma-spectroscopy analysis. In the second study, various tracer materials and procedures were used to correct for yield losses in the determination of90Sr and99Tc in synthetic samples that contained significant interferences.
