Abstract
THE classical method of Bryant et al.1 for the estimation of strontium-90 in milk is both tedious and hazardous. Davis2, Farabee3 and other workers4,5 have all reported separations of strontium from calcium using ion-exchange methods, and such techniques would appear to offer promise for the estimation of strontium-90 in milk.
