Abstract:: |
Objective To develop a rapid and reliable method for determination of 210Po using large-area grid ionization chamber α spectrometry. Methods Samples were digested using a microwave digestion system. After preparation of sample source, the concentration of 210Po in clam was detected by large-area grid ionization chamber (φ 25 cm). 209Po tracer was used to obtain the recovery. Results Large-area grid ionization chamber could achieve better counting and α spectrum resolution when the optimized thickness was 250 μg/cm2. By spiking 209Po tracer in clam, the minimum detectable activity was 9.870×10-4 Bq and the recovery of 210Po was 98%. Conclusions Compared with the traditional method, the developed method can avoid separation process, using less quantity of sample (0.2-0.5 g dry) and simplify the measurement process. This method may be has broad application prospects. |
