Scintillating solutions for low-energy radiolabels: Detecting and assaying low-beta-energy radiolabels such as tritium (~3H)

摘要

BECAUSE TRITIUM (~3H) emits a low-energy beta particle (0.019 Mev), direct detection can be challenging. Unlike radiolabels such as ~(14)C, ~(35)S, ~(32)P, and ~(33)P, tritium cannot be detected using a Geiger-Mueller (G-M) tube and ratemeter.
