Abstract The procedures developed and standardised for estimation of ultra trace quantities of Pu and Am in environmental samples involve matrix dependent sample preparation, preconcentration of the nuclides by coprecipitation on iron hydroxide and or bismuth phosphate, ion exchange, electrodeposition and counting by alpha spectrometry. Isotopic analysis of Th in chicken bone using oxalate precipitation, ion exchange, electrodeposition and alpha spectrometry has indicated higher build up of228Th in chicken bone from monazite areas possibly from metabolized228Ra.
