[ RadSafe ] Re: Looking for References on Liquid ScintillationCounting for Tritium

[Michael McCarty]

Packard was acquired by PerkinElmer.  Go to their web site (http://perkinelmer.com/) and search for the two numbers Jim Tracy has given.  The second may be viewed online as a PDF file.  They appear to want money for the first.

Hello Felip

Two references I have found useful are

"Liquid scintillation analysis, Science and Technology"  Edited by Michael 
Kessler.  It was published by Packard in 1989 as publication no. 169-3052

"LSC Handbook of Environmental Liquid Scintillation Spectrometry, A 
compilation of theory and methods"  Authored by Charles Passo and Gordon 
Cook.  This was published by Packard in 1994.  The closest I can find to a 
publication reference is PMC0387.

.I'd suggest contacting Packard to see if copies of these are still available.
