Many radioisotopes disintegrate into isotopes which are also radioactive. In expressing the concentrations in 180 NAC 3, Appendix 003-A the activity stated is that of the parent isotope and takes into account the daughters.
For purposes of 180 NAC 3-004 where there is involved a combination of isotopes, the limit for the combination must be derived as follows: Determine for each isotope in the product the ratio between the concentration present in the product and the exempt concentration established in Appendix 003-A for the specific isotope when not in combination. The sum of such ratios may not exceed "1", or unity.
Concentration of Isotope A in Product + Concentration of Isotope B in Product = [LESS THAN EQUAL TO]1
Exempt concentration of Isotope A Exempt concentration of Isotope B
To convert µCi /ml to SI units of MBq per liter multiply the above value by 37.
Zirconium (40) Zr-97 2E-4 µCi /ml multiplied by 37 is equivalent to 74E+4 MBq/l)
