Czechoslovak Journal of Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

A radiochemical method for the determination of 210Pb in various types of samples was validated. An extraction chromatographic material Eichrom SrResin® was used for Pb separation. From the resin, Pb was eluted with 6 M HCl. The method was tested for water, inorganic and organic matrices. As a main result of the study, activity concentrations of 210Pb in 19 food samples of the main Czech food-basket items were determined. Results ranged from 0.03 ± 0.01 Bq kg−1 to 1.54 ± 0.40 Bq kg−1, fresh mass.
