Abstract

The purpose of this study was to test a method for 99Tc determination in soil samples from locality Bratislava Podunajske Biskupice by using solid phase extraction technique with a new sorbent AnaLig® Tc-02—molecular recognition technology product. The method is suitable for analyzing soil samples in a relatively short time and high recoveries. The use and effectiveness of AnaLig® Tc-02 were successfully tested by analysis of soil and spiked soil samples.
