The determination of environmental contamination with natural and artificial actinide isotopes and evaluation of their source requires precise determination of concentration and isotopic ratios of actinides in environmental samples. The most conventional analytical tools used for uranium and plutonium isotope determination are liquid scintillation and alpha spectrometry, and thermal ionization mass spectrometry is still considered as the primary method for determination of plutonium isotope ratios. Inductively cou...
