RADIOBIOLOGICAL, RADIOCHEMICAL, AND PHYSIOCHEMICAL ANALYSES

Abstract

Data on the plutonium and uranium content of biological and physical samples, collected and isolated from non-nuclear detonations of plutonium bearing weapons under various storage situations, are presented. A precision tracer (Pu-236) procedure was developed for the rapid analysis of the plutonium, which was nonuniformly distributed in these samples. A fluorimetric procedure was developed for the rapid analysis of uranium. (Author)
