Standardization of calibration procedures for quantification of gross alpha and gross beta activities using liquid scintillation counter
Simultaneous measurement of gross alpha and gross beta activities by liquid scintillation counting technique using LKB Wallac Quantulus 1220 liquid scintillation counter (LSC) equipped with Pulse Shape Analyzer (PSA) is described. Three sets of pure alpha and pure beta standards simulating the activ...

description | Simultaneous measurement of gross alpha and gross beta activities by liquid scintillation counting technique using LKB Wallac Quantulus 1220 liquid scintillation counter (LSC) equipped with Pulse Shape Analyzer (PSA) is described. Three sets of pure alpha and pure beta standards simulating the activity concentration values of real samples in terms of α/β activity ratios were used to calibrate the LSC. Calibration methodology for the Quantulus 1220 with respect to the above measurements using
241
Am and
90
Sr/
90
Y standards of respective activity concentrations of ~25 dpm and ~10
4
dpm is described in detail. Also highlighted the need to calibrate the LSC using another set of
241
Am and
90
Sr/
90
Y standards of low and high activity concentrations respectively. The practicability and working performance of these calibration plots was checked by the validation trials with test samples spiked with
241
Am and
90
Sr/
90
Y covering range of α/β activity ratios from 1:1 to 1:50. |
