OSTI ID:4077714
Evaluation of paper chromatograms of inorganic ions by measurement of activity with a Geiger-Muller tube and by autoradiography is outlined. Photographs of radiometric determinations for the fractions from treatment of urine with HCl, reduction, H/sub 2/S I, H/sub 2/S II, urotropin I, urotropin II, and (NH/sub 4/)/sub 2/S and the alkaline earth, and alkali metal groups are included. Quantitative determination of nuclides on the paper chromatogram is reviewed and applied to the problem of urine analysis; the recovery in a model system ranges from 84 to 98%. Identification of gamma emitters in solutions of the above groups may be made by scintillation spectroscopy. The gamma spectra of Co/sup 60/, I/sup 131/, Se/sup 75/, Ce/sup 144/ , Cs/sup 137/, and Sb/sup 125/ solutions measured by this procedure are shown. The separation of radioactive anlons is discussed; the use of precipitants is reviewed. A procedure for the quantitative determination of radioactive anions in a urine sample allows separation and estimation of Cl/sup 36/, I/sup 131/, S/sup 25/, and P/sup 3 Determination of Cl/sup 36/ and I/sup 131/ in the presence of each other is made by analysis of the decay curve of the Ag halide sample. One hundred sixty-two references are cited for this anticle and the two preceding in the series. (BBB)
