The Quantulus 1220 PerkinElmer is an ultra low-level liquid scintillation spectrometer dedicated to environmental research. Quantulus is a counter with proven unsurpassed performance measuring extremely low concentrations of man-made, cosmogenic and other natural radionuclides. The Quantulus provides alpha/beta discrimination counting. Especially for samples containing mixed alpha/beta/gamma radiation. It provides the highest beta liquid scintillation sensitivity and counting performance. In our laboratory, we mostly use it for tritium activity measurements in environmental samples.
