A sensitive method to determine 210Po and 210Pb in environmental samples by alpha spectrometry using CuS micro-precipitation [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 A new sensitive method to determine polonium-210 (210Po) and lead-210 (210Pb) in a diversity of environmental samples was developed. For fresh and marine waters, Po was pre-concentrated using a titanium (III) hydroxide (Ti(OH)3) co-precipitation.

Removal of the Homolog Tellurium of Polonium by SiO2 Nanofiber Filter for Lead Alloy-Cooled Reactors
Toxics, 2022 The lead–bismuth eutectic (LBE) can be easily activated by neutron radiation to produce the radionuclide 210Po. It is therefore necessary to establish an effective method to remove vaporized polonium in the cover gas to prevent its release into the air ...

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Black carbon (BC) is believed to be refractory and thus affects the timescale of organic carbon conversion into CO2 and the magnitude of the sink of CO2. However, the fate of BC in the oceans remains poorly understood. Here, 210Po and 210Pb were measured

Multi-Physics Model Development for Polonium Transport Behavior in a Lead-Cooled Fast Reactor
Frontiers in Energy Research, 2021 210Po, a highly toxic element with strong volatility, is one of the main source terms of a Gen-IV lead-cooled fast reactor (LFR). Therefore, the radioactive safety caused by 210Po has become an important topic in LFR-related research.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE XVI MEXICAN SYMPOSIUM ON MEDICAL PHYSICS, 2021 The activity concentration of polonium-210 in the soft tissue of several species of mollusks of coastal areas from Tabasco, Mexico, has been determined. Polonium-210 is a natural radionuclide that may be bioaccumulated by flora and fauna, particularly by
