Tritium Determination in Danube River Water in Serbia by Liquid Scintillation Counter
Tritium activity concentration in Danube river water in Serbia has been determinate using a liquid scintillation counter Quantulus 1220. During December 2010, water samples were taken along the entire course of Danube through Serbia, from HungarianSerbian to Romanian-Serbian border. This investigation is very important because of the nearness of nuclear reactor Paks in Hungary. Sample preparati...
متن کاملThe Scintillation Counter
The development of detectors for both counting and measuring the energy of particles and photons has played an important role in the evolution of nuclear physics. In this experiment, you will be introduced to one such detector the scintillation counter which is particularly suitable for detecting γ-ray photons. You will use it to observe the energy spectrum of γ-rays from several nuclei and stu...
متن کاملTritium assay by liquid scintillation spectrometry. Comparison of tritium and deuterium oxides as tracers for body water.
ISIDORE S. EDELMAN, M.D. TO DATE, deuterium oxide (D20) has been the most satisfactory and accurate tracer substance for body water: its diffusion characteristics have been thoroughly studied, and its reliability as a tracer for body water by the dilution technic has been established.' 2 However, the technical difficulty of deuterium analysis by the falling drop method and the labor and expense...
متن کاملOptimization Method to Determine Gross Alpha-Beta in Water Samples Using Liquid Scintillation Counter
Liquid scintillation counting (LSC) is an adequate nuclear technique to determine radioactivity levels, as verified by this study for the determination of the gross alpha and beta activities of aqueous samples because of its simplicity and low associated cost comparison with other techniques. This paper discusses a new approach to the monitoring of gross alpha and gross beta activities in water...
متن کاملMeasurement of Strontium-90 in the Persian Gulf Fish by Extraction Chromatography with Sr-resin and Liquid Scintillation Counter
Background: Despite its beneficial effects on human life, the nuclear industry has its own risks. Strontium 90 (90Sr) is one of the most dangerous radionuclides produced by the uranium 235 fission, and replaces the bone calcium in the human body, which causes cancer. Ensuring the safety of nuclear facilities to protect employees, people and the environment is among the main goals of nuclear saf...
