This document specifies a method for the measurement of
99Tc in all types of waters by liquid
scintillation counting (LSC).
The method is applicable to test samples of supply/drinking water, rainwater, surface and ground water,
as well as cooling water, industrial water, domestic, and industrial wastewater after proper sampling
and handling, and test sample preparation. A filtration of the test sample is necessary.
The detection limit depends on the sample volume and the instrument used. The method described
in this document, using currently available LSC instruments, has a detection limit of approximately
5 Bq·kg
–1 to 20 Bq·kg
–1, which is lower than the WHO criteria for safe consumption of drinking water (100 Bq l
–1)
[3]. These values can be achieved with a counting time of 30 min for a sample volume varying between 14 ml to 40 ml. The method presented in this document is not intended for the determination of ultra-trace amount of
99Tc.
