  • Patent number: 9267896
    Abstract: According to the present invention, there is provided a method of determining a concentration of uranium including: a) a primary measuring step of measuring luminescence intensity or luminescence attenuation of uranium (VI) of an oxidant added sample obtained by adding an oxidant composition to a detection target sample; b) a secondary measuring step of adding different volumes of standard solution containing uranium (VI) having a predetermined concentration to a plurality of oxidant added samples, respectively, and then measuring luminescence intensity or luminescence attenuation of uranium (VI) contained in each standard solution added sample; and c) a calculating step of calculating a concentration of uranium (VI) contained in the detection target sample by a standard addition method based on the primary and secondary measurements. With the method for determining a concentration of uranium according to the present invention, the concentration of uranium may be further rapidly and accurately analyzed.
