RAD Analysis: Direct Gamma Spectrometry

Various Radionuclides


Gamma spectrometry can quantify many different radioactive elements. Becquerel offers several packages to assess the levels in different types of materials.

Other gamma emitters such as fission products or medical isotopes can also be determined (please inquire). This technique can measure the radionuclides directly on a bulk sample and the detection limits will vary with the time of counting, the size and the matrix of the sample - please contact the lab about your requirements.
