Determining adsorption efficiency by subsequently exposing radium adsorbing films to the same sample. Sample volume : 80 ml, sheets : 20mm x 20mm Polyamid 66, covered on both sides with MnO2 , exposition time : 6 h per film. Samples are mineral waters from several European countries. Error bars are ±1s counting statistics. Dashed lines : slopes for
50%, 75% and 90% adsorption efficiency.
