Is designed to obtain data allowing the comparison of the ease of decontamination of different surface materials and can be used for comparative tests with any radionuclide in aqueous solution. Comparison is based on the mean residual pulse rates. In order to allow the general qualifications of a surface material as a single product, a method based o ## Source - https://isopublicstorageprod.blob.core.windows.net/opendata/_latest/iso_deliverables_metadata/csv/iso_deliverables_metadata.csv Last verified: 2026-08-05.
