· Am. Ind. Byg. Assoc. J.
A procedure was developed for routine determination of alpha activity resulting from the presence of submicrogram quantities of enriched uranium in urine. Wet oxidation of the organic content, removal of the calcium, and two hours of electrodeposition were found necessary prior to the alpha counting. The method provides over 80% recovery of the alpha activity with a precision of about plus or minus 0.8 counts/minute. (auth)
