Interlaboratory comparison of gross alpha/beta activity of drinking water over a decade
Interlaboratory comparison exercises for determining the gross alpha and beta activity concentrations in drinking water, organized by the National Institute for Radiological Protection (NIRP), China CDC, have been carried out since 2012. The purpose of this study is to assess the accuracy and precision of gross alpha and beta analyses of low-level radioactivity concentrations. Natural water samples were used for the comparison, and the performance of the participating laboratories was evaluated with respect to the reference values using the Z-score performance indicator. The comparison data from 2012 to 2022 were analyzed, where the percentage of laboratories with acceptable results was 80–92%, and the dispersion of the measurement results across laboratories became smaller over time. The results demonstrate that these exercises can help laboratories to resolve issues in gross α/β analysis and improve the consistency of the measurement results.
期刊介绍：
Applied Radiation and Isotopes provides a high quality medium for the publication of substantial, original and scientific and technological papers on the development and peaceful application of nuclear, radiation and radionuclide techniques in chemistry, physics, biochemistry, biology, medicine, security, engineering and in the earth, planetary and environmental sciences, all including dosimetry. Nuclear techniques are defined in the broadest sense and both experimental and theoretical papers are welcome. They include the development and use of α- and β-particles, X-rays and γ-rays, neutrons and other nuclear particles and radiations from all sources, including radionuclides, synchrotron sources, cyclotrons and reactors and from the natural environment.
The journal aims to publish papers with significance to an international audience, containing substantial novelty and scientific impact. The Editors reserve the rights to reject, with or without external review, papers that do not meet these criteria.
Papers dealing with radiation processing, i.e., where radiation is used to bring about a biological, chemical or physical change in a material, should be directed to our sister journal Radiation Physics and Chemistry.
