Volumes less than 600 ml are almost certainly incomplete collections. Extrapolated
values for small samples may be falsely higher due to exaggeration of background
counting error

The error in the measurement of the plutonium samples was + 100%, which means that no
statistically significant levels could be found.
*x*x

An earlier count on these samples reported an error of + 40 & +60%.

of these samples at a later date showed the error was + 100%.
