چکیده
The Radionuclide Metrology Laboratory (RML) from IFIN-HH organized proficiency tests regarding the measurement of the radioactive content of the food products, water equivalent, with the involved laboratories. RML prepared 14 solid volume sources, of cylindrical shape, containing a mixture of Cs-134 and Cs-137 radionuclides, uniformly distributed in a water equivalent matrix. 13 participants from the National Sanitary Veterinary and Food Safety Authority (ANSVSA), each of them measuring a different source, and 7 accredited laboratories from IFIN-HH, which measured a single source in a round robin test, took part in exercise. The results obtained in these exercises, as well as the improvements since two similar previous tests, are presented.
