Various types of mineral and drinking waters have been tested for the simultaneous determination of 226Ra and 22SRa using 3M's EMPORE TM Radium Rad Disks. Both r adionuclides 226Ra and 228Ra were counted through their daughter products, 226Ra by the conventional radon emanation technique and 22SRa through its daughter 22SAc by using a proportional counter. 0.2 M diammonium hydrogen citrate adjusted by ammonia to pH 7.8 was used for radium stripping from the disk and 3.10 -4 M diammonium hydrogen citrate was used for actinium washing from the disk.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
