Determination of low-level90Sr in environmental materials: A novel approach to the classical method

Ultra-trace determination of 90Sr, 137Cs, 238Pu, 239Pu, and 240Pu by triple quadruple collision/reaction cell-ICP-MS/MS: Establishing a baseline for global fallout in Qatar soil and sediments

“…Vajda and Kim (2010) provide a very good overview of recent 90 Sr separation and analytical measurement techniques. Bojanowski and Skib (1990) have reported a method using fuming nitric precipitation, although handling fuming nitric acid is very tedious and timeconsuming. Wang et al (2004) reported a sequential method to determine actinides and 90 Sr in soil samples, and Ageyev et al (2005) also described a sequential method for soil samples.…”

Rapid determination of actinides in emergency food samples

“…Vajda and Kim provide a very good overview of recent radiostrontium separation and analytical measurement techniques. [3] This review also included more classical methods using fuming nitric precipitation as reported by Bojanowski et al [4]. Fuming nitric acid presents handling difficulties and can be very tedious and time-consuming.…”

Rapid determination of radiostrontium in seawater samples

“…This review also included more classical methods for water samples using fuming 66 nitric precipitation as reported by Bojanowski et al [4]. The samples were centrifuged using 500 ml centrifuge tubes, splitting the samples 236 between two 500 ml tubes and centrifuging for ~6 minutes @3400 rpm.…”
