Abstract Time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence (TRLIF) is a method of choice for actinides and lanthanides determination at low level in nuclear, biological and environmental samples. This technique is based on pulsed laser excitation followed by temporal resolution of the fluorescence signal. This technique has many advantages such as: high sensitivity, rapidity, triple selectivity and is applicable in a wide range of activity concentrations. TRLIF has been used in several fields such as; geology, in the PUREX process, in the medical field, in the environments and for nuclear waste disposal applications. Trends are towards the use of TRLIF for remote determination via fiber optics and optode as well a speciation.
