Abstract
The purpose of this study was to test a method for 99Tc determination in soil samples from locality Bratislava Podunajske Biskupice by using solid phase extraction technique with a new sorbent AnaLigÂŪ Tc-02âmolecular recognition technology product. The method is suitable for analyzing soil samples in a relatively short time and high recoveries. The use and effectiveness of AnaLigÂŪ Tc-02 were successfully tested by analysis of soil and spiked soil samples.
