Hi Lori,
Hope this finds you well,
The LSC "sees" the Auger electrons, very low in energy similar to H-3. I have done LSC spectrum analysis with I-125 and the counting effic. Is high. You should get a NIST I-125 standard (or traceable), calibrate the LSC with it, then count a sealed-non-quenched H-3 LSC standard, and then use the H-3 standard routinely.

Does anyone have experience with LSC counting for I-125? If so, can you =
recommend a standard that is long-lived? Do you know of a manufacturer =
for such a standard?=20
Thanks,
