ASTM D3986 - 11 standard test method for barium in brines, seawater, and brackish water by direct-current argon plasma atomic emission spectroscopy

All waters containing acid soluble barium compounds are known to be toxic. This test method is useful for the determination of barium in brines, seawater, and brackish waters. Consumption, inhalation, or absorption of 500 to 600 mg of barium is considered fatal to human beings. Lower levels may result in disorders of the heart, blood vessels, and nerves. The drinking water standards set the ...
