OSTI ID:4167597

A method for quantitative determination of Sr/sup 90/ in plant material is described. In the course of analysis the substance was charred and the ash dissolved. Phosphate ions and hydroxides were separated from the solution. The alkaline earths were removed in the form of carbonates. From the radiochemical equilibrium between strontium and yttrium, yttrium was isolated and measured. No inactive strontium carrier was added. The calcium content of the sample served as a carrier for the strontium. The chemical yield was determined by adding Sr/ sup 89/. (auth)
