Water quality - Radium-226 - Part 1 : test method using liquid scintillation counting

This document specifies the determination of radium-226 (226Ra) activity concentration in non-saline water samples by extraction of its daughter radon-222 (222Rn) and its measurement using liquid scintillation analysis.The test method described in this document, using currently available scintillation counters, has a detection limit of approximately 50 mBq·l−1. This method is not applicable to the measurement of other radium isotopes.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department

To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:

  • mandatory clauses to satisfy,
  • non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document "ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents" as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.

With Requirements, quickly access the main part of the normative text!
