Finally, the Sr was purified by extraction chromatography using Triskem International Sr resin. The transition elements (Ni, Mn, Fe, Co, Eu) were precipitated as hydroxides, followed by alkaline-earth metals separation (Ca, Ba) as carbonates. The method was applied to simulated samples containing stable elements of Ni, Cs, Ca, Ba, Mn, Fe, Co and Eu. International Nuclear Information System (INIS)Ī two-steps chemical treatment technique for strontium assessment from aqueous samples is described in this paper.
