dc.description.abstractMinimum-detectable activities (MDAs) for 3H, 14C, and 32P were determined experimentally by the method of beta-particle spectrum analysis and compared to corresponding theoretically possible MDAs using the integrated count rate for each radionuclide. The lowest MDAs determined experimentally for 3H, 14C, and 32P were 5.5, 3.5, and 2.5 picocuries, respectively. MDA values were determined for these three radionuclides individually, and for 3H in the presence of 14C and 32P to demonstrate the influence of other radionuclides on the MDA of a given radionuclide. MDA values were also determined for the three radionuclides as a function of sample counting time.en_US
