Abstract:
Abstract:Recent years have witnessed more attention paid to the health effects of the natural radionuclide 226Ra, and a series of research carried out on the detection methods of 226Ra at home and abroad. The common 226Ra detection methods are emanation scintillation, gamma spectrometry, liquid scintillation counting, alpha spectrometry and alpha counting. Emanation scintillation is mature enough as a classical method, while gamma spectrometry and liquid scintillation counting proceed fast. Due to the radiation of 226Ra, these detection methods still have the problems such as the requirement for large samples, long detection periods, complicated steps, high detection limits and low recovery rates. This paper reviews the five methods above and summarize their advantages and disadvantages, so as to provide the reference for selecting and optimizing the detection methods for different samples as well as perfecting the standard method in China.
