Water quality - Lead-210 - Test method using liquid scintillation counting (ISO 13163:2021)
EN ISO 13163:2022

This document specifies a method for the measurement of 210Pb 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. Filtration of the test sample is necessary. Lead‑210 activity
concentration in the environment can vary and usually ranges from 2 mBq l
-1 to 300 mBq l
-1 [27][28].
Using currently available liquid scintillation counters, the limit of detection of this method for 210Pb
is generally of the order of 20 mBq l
-1 to 50 mBq l
-1, which is lower than the WHO criteria for safe
consumption of drinking water (100 mBq l−1).[4][6]
These values can be achieved with a counting time
between 180 min and 720 min for a sample volume from 0,5 l to 1,5 l. Higher activity concentrations
can be measured by either diluting the sample or using smaller sample aliquots or both. The method
presented in this document is not intended for the determination of an ultra-trace amount of 210Pb.
The range of application depends on the amount of dissolved material in the water and on the
performance characteristics of the measurement equipment (background count rate and counting
efficiency).
The method described in this document is applicable to an emergency situation.
The analysis of Pb adsorbed to suspended matter is not covered by this method.
It is the user’s responsibility to ensure the validity of this test method for the water samples tested.

Water quality - Strontium 90 and strontium 89 - Test methods using liquid scintillation counting or proportional counting (ISO 13160:2021)
EN ISO 13160:2021

This document specifies conditions for the determination of 90Sr and 89Sr activity concentration in
samples of environmental water using liquid scintillation counting (LSC) or proportional counting (PC).
The method is applicable to test samples of drinking water, rainwater, surface and ground water,
marine water, as well as cooling water, industrial water, domestic, and industrial wastewater after
proper sampling and handling, and test sample preparation. Filtration of the test sample and a chemical
separation are required to separate and purify strontium from a test portion of the sample.
The detection limit depends on the sample volume, the instrument used, the sample count time, the
background count rate, the detection efficiency and the chemical yield. The method described in this
document, using currently available LSC counters, has a detection limit of approximately 10 mBq l−1
and 2 mBq l−1 for 89Sr and 90Sr, respectively, which is lower than the WHO criteria for safe consumption
of drinking water (100 Bq·l−1 for 89Sr and 10 Bq·l−1 for 90Sr)[3]. These values can be achieved with a
counting time of 1 000 min for a sample volume of 2 l.
The methods described in this document are applicable in the event of an emergency situation.
When fallout occurs following a nuclear accident, the contribution of 89Sr to the total amount of
radioactive strontium is not negligible. This document provides test methods to determine the activity
concentration of 90Sr in presence of 89Sr.
The analysis of 90Sr and 89Sr adsorbed to suspended matter is not covered by this method.
It is the user’s responsibility to ensure the validity of this test method selected for the water samples
tested.

Water quality - Gamma-ray emitting radionuclides - Test method using high resolution gamma-ray spectrometry (ISO 10703:2021)
EN ISO 10703:2021

This document specifies a method for the physical pre-treatment and conditioning of water samples
and the determination of the activity concentration of various radionuclides emitting gamma-rays with
energies between 40 keV and 2 MeV, by gamma‑ray spectrometry according to the generic test method
described in ISO 20042.
The method is applicable to test samples of drinking water, rainwater, surface and ground water as well
as cooling water, industrial water, domestic and industrial wastewater after proper sampling, sample
handling, and test sample preparation (filtration when necessary and taking into account the amount
of dissolved material in the water). This method is only applicable to homogeneous samples or samples
which are homogeneous via timely filtration.
The lowest limit that can be measured without concentration of the sample or by using only passive
shield of the detection system is about 5·10-2 Bq/l for e.g. 137Cs1). The upper limit of the activity
corresponds to a dead time of 10 %. Higher dead times may be used but evidence of the accuracy of the
dead-time correction is required.
Depending on different factors, such as the energy of the gamma-rays, the emission probability per
nuclear disintegration, the size and geometry of the sample and the detector, the shielding, the counting
time and other experimental parameters, the sample may require to be concentrated by evaporation
if activities below 5·10-2 Bq/l need to be measured. However, volatile radionuclides (e.g. radon and
radioiodine) can be lost during the source preparation.
This method is suitable for application in emergency situations.

EN ISO 13162:2021

This document specifies a method for the measurement of 14C activity concentration in all types of
water samples by liquid scintillation counting (LSC) either directly on the test sample or following a
chemical separation.
The method is applicable to test samples of supply/drinking water, rainwater, surface and ground water,
marine water, as well as cooling water, industrial water, domestic, and industrial wastewater.
The detection limit depends on the sample volume, the instrument used, the sample counting time, the
background count rate, the detection efficiency and the chemical recovery. The method described in
this document, using currently available liquid scintillation counters and suitable technical conditions,
has a detection limit as low as 1 Bq∙l−1, which is lower than the WHO criteria for safe consumption of
drinking water (100 Bq·l-1). 14C activity concentrations can be measured up to 106 Bq∙l-1 without any
sample dilution.
It is the user’s responsibility to ensure the validity of this test method for the water samples tested.

Water quality - Guidance for rapid radioactivity measurements in nuclear or radiological emergency situation (ISO 22017:2020)
EN ISO 22017:2020

This standard describes the requirements for rapid testing of water samples under emergency situations in laboratories:
- taking into account a special context for analyses, e.g. an unknown and unusual contamination;
- using or adapting if possible radioactivity measurements methods used in routine to get a result
rapidly or applying specific rapid methods previously tested by the laboratory, e.g. for 89Sr determination ;
- preparing the laboratory to analyse a large number of potentially contaminated samples.
The focus thereby is on cases where rapid radioactivity test methods are applied for all kind of waters. The first steps of the analytical strategy is often based on gross alpha and gross beta as screening methods (adaptation of ISO 10704 and ISO 11704) and gamma spectrometry (adaptation of ISO 10703). Then if necessary, specific radionuclides standards are adapted and applied (for example, Strontium 90 measurement following ISO 13160).
This guideline refers to a number of ISO standards. If appropriate, it will also refer to national or other
publically available standards.
Screening techniques that can be carried out on site are not part of this guide.

EN ISO 13161:2020

This document specifies a method for the measurement of 210Po in all types of waters by alpha
spectrometry.
The method is applicable to test samples of supply/drinking water, rainwater, surface and ground
water, marine water, as well as cooling water, industrial water, domestic, and industrial wastewater
after proper sampling and handling, and test sample preparation. Filtration of the test sample may be
required.
The detection limit depends on the sample volume, the instrument used, the counting time, the
background count rate, the detection efficiency and the chemical yield. The method described in
this document, using currently available alpha spectrometry apparatus, has a detection limit of
approximately 5 mBq l−1, which is lower than the WHO criteria for safe consumption of drinking water
(100 mBq l−1). This value can be achieved with a counting time of 24 h for a sample volume of 500 ml.
The method described in this document is also applicable in an emergency situation.
The analysis of 210Po adsorbed to suspended matter in the sample is not covered by this method.
If suspended material has to be removed or analysed, filtration using a 0,45 μm filter is recommended.
The analysis of the insoluble fraction requires a mineralization step that is not covered by this document
[13]. In this case, the measurement is made on the different phases obtained. The final activity is the
sum of all the measured activity concentrations.
It is the user’s responsibility to ensure the validity of this test method for the water samples tested.
