ISO 13167:2015 Water quality - Plutonium, americium, curium and neptunium - Test method using alpha spectrometry

International Organization for Standardization – 2015.- 27 p.
ISO 13167:2015 specifies a test method for measuring actinides (²³⁸Pu, ^239+240Pu, ²⁴¹Am, ²⁴²Cm, ^243+244Cm and ²³⁷Np) in water samples by alpha spectrometry following a chemical separation.
The method can be used for any type of environmental study or monitoring.
The volume of the test portion required depends on the assumed activity of the sample and the desired detection limit.
The detection limit of the test method is 5.E−3 to 5.E−4 Bq/L for a volume of the test portion of 0.1 L to 5 L with a counting time of two to ten days.
