The sorption behavior of [sup 99m]Tc on zinc dust was studied as a function of pH. Optimum conditions have been found for the preconcentration of traces of Tc by zinc. The influence of surface-active substances and of complexing agents on the sorption of trace amounts of Tc on zinc dust has been also studied. 8 refs., 8 figs., 1 tab.
