An inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry-based method is presented aimed at total uranium concentration and atomic ratio determination. The method includes flow-injection uranium separation based on TRU Eichrom extraction chromatographic cartridges. The method was tested with urine interlaboratorial exercise samples and certified reference materials (NBL-CRM-U020A and NBL-CRM-U050) providing reliable results. The proposed methodology was also applied to urine samples obtained after an incident at a nuclear facility. The obtained (235)U/(238)U and (234)U/(238)U atomic ratios in the urine of an exposed worker were equal to those observed for an enriched uranium solution from the same origin.
本文提出了一种基于电感耦合等离子体质谱法的方法,用于测定总铀浓度和原子比。该方法包括基于TRU Eichrom萃取色谱柱的流动注射铀分离。该方法通过实验室间尿液分析样品和标准参考物质(NBL-CRM-U020A和NBL-CRM-U050)进行测试,结果可靠。所提出的方法还应用于核设施事故后采集的尿液样本。在一名受辐射工人的尿液中测得的(235)U/(238)U和(234)U/(238)U原子比,与来自同一来源的浓缩铀溶液中观察到的原子比相同。
