LabLogic Systems is accepting any liquid scintillation counter in part exchange for the new Hidex 300SL and will take responsibility for safe disposal of the old counter's internal radiation source.
The 300SL is an LSC counter that uses Triple-to-Double Coincidence Ratio (TDCR) technology for absolute activity measurement, which eliminates the need for an internal source when working with pure beta emitters.
It is also more sensitive than conventional instruments and has lower 'background'.
It uses the latest instrument control and data acquisition software and is 50cm wide x 60cm deep x 65cm high.
Weighing less than 100 kg (including the 60mm detector shield), the 300SL is a portable unit.
It accommodates up to 96 x 7ml or 40 x 20ml vials in sample trays that are compatible with sample preparation instruments such as liquid handling stations or cell harvesters.
