This document specifies a method by liquid scintillation counting for the determination of tritium activity concentration in samples of marine waters, surface waters, ground waters, rain waters, drinking waters or of tritiated water ([3H]H2O) in effluents.
The method is not directly applicable to the analysis of organically bound tritium; its determination
requires additional chemical processing of the sample (such as chemical oxidation or combustion).
With suitable technical conditions, the detection limit may be as low as 1 Bq·l-1. Tritium activity
concentrations below 106Bq·l-1can be determined without any sample dilution.Cross References:ISO/IEC Guide 98-3ISO 5667-1ISO/IEC 17025ISO 5667-3ISO 80000-10ISO/IEC Guide 99ISO 5667-11ISO 11929ISO 19361EPA-600/4-80ISO 5667-8ISO 5667-6ISO 7870-2ISO 5667-9ISO 5667-10ISO 5667-7ISO 5667-5ISO 5667-4IAEA GSG-2ISO 5667-20EPA-520/5-84ISO 5667-14All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
