Abstract

Liquid scintillation counting is widely used to measure radioactivity, but it generates radioactive organic liquid waste. Not to generate the liquid waste using a liquid scintillation counter, novel counting method with a plastic scintillation vial was designed. The counting efficiency for 32P was 10–40% and that for 125I was 4–8%. The efficiency depended on the sample volume. The color quenching effect was negligible. No radioactive liquid waste was generated by this method. In addition, you can reuse the measured sample.
