Many cations, including those of cesium-l37/barium137m, strontium-90/ yttrium-90, and cerium-144/ praseodymium-144, are efficiently removed from neutral solution by a pre-formed precipitate of ammonium 12molybdosphosphate supported on a filter-paper in a demountable funnel. Cesium is selectively taken up by this compound from dilute nitric acid solution, and a method based on this fact is suggested for the quantitative determination of radioactive cesium. (auth)
