Abstract
As part of the implementation of the quality system on ISO 17025 and accreditation, SALROM laboratory participated in the last year in intercomparison exercises, national and international, for determination of natural and man-made radionuclides. This paper describes results obtained in intercomparison exercise organized by IAEA in 2011. The reported values were mostly in good agreement with the resulting reference values.

Summary
The activity of SALMROM laboratory, part of Life and Environmental Physics Department from IFIN-HH, consists in regular monitoring of the environmental radioactivity, on daily/monthly bases, in the area of the institute and nearby. Some other activities, devoted to research programs, are related to the evaluation of radon concentration in salt mines, caves, construction sites or former industrial areas, to radionuclide inventory in water, soil or vegetation in the environment. The laboratory has a quality system implemented and accredited to ISO 17025. In the frame of accreditation systems, the use of reference materials, both for quality control and proficiency testing, has increased in recent years [1]. This paper presents the results obtained by the laboratory in an intercomparison exercise organized by IAEA in 2011, the first year when the laboratory has participated in such proficiency test
