Abstract

A method for solvent extraction of radioactive phosphorus as phospho-molybdic acid in foods is described. The use of a carrier can be eliminated due to the quantity of the stable element present in foods. The use of a liquid scintillation technique for counting is discussed, showing the effective elimination of color and chemical quench. The efficiency resulting from the liquid scintillation method of counting makes possible the detection of 10 -5 μc levels of activity in the original sample.
