Abstract
The method of analysis used in this study is a simplified version of a method that measures the uranium isotopic concentrations in the sample by alpha spectrometry. This method measures total uranium alpha activity, the measurement needed for a gross alpha assessment of a drinking water sample. The purpose of the collaborative study of the selected test procedure is to determine what precision and accuracy can be expected by the use of the procedure by any competent laboratory in the analysis of drinking water samples for alpha activity contributed by the uranium in the water samples.
