Liquid Scintillation Counting Methodology for 99Tc Analysis: A Remedy for Radiopharmaceutical Waste

Abstract: This paper presents a new approach for liquid scintillation counting (LSC) analysis of single-radionuclide samples containing appreciable organic or inorganic quench. This work offers better analytical results than existing LSC methods for technetium-99 ((99g)Tc) analysis with significant savings in analysis cost and time. The method was developed to quantify (99g)Tc in environmental liquid and urine samples using LSC. Method efficiency was measured in the presence of 1.9 to 11 900 ppm total dissolved solids. … Show more

“…The proposed system offers better analytical results than existing LSC methods for 99 Tc determination with significant savings in analysis cost and time. 5 Flow analysis techniques have allowed the automation of a huge number of analytical protocols, providing the partial or complete automation of the analytical methods. This automation allows a significant decrease in time of analysis, the reduction of sample and reagent consumption, and a minimal handling of samples and standards, improving the safety of the analyst.…”
