- Scintillation Cocktail Designed
to Dissolve Membrane Filters
- Improves Reproducibility
- 4π Counting Efficiency
Filtron-X is a ready-to-use liquid
scintillation solution which
completely dissolves Millipore-type
filters (cellulose acetate,
cellulose nitrate and mixed ester),
solubilizing a wide variety of
samples contained on the filter.
Filtron-X contains all the necessary
phosphors and solvents to yield
counting efficiencies unattainable
by any other means. The use of
Filtron-X assures full 4π geometry
counting of samples. Improvement in
counting efficiency is most notable
when tritium is used as the label
since absorption of the emitted beta
ray by the filter is completely
avoided. Filtron-X will solubilize
the sample assuring homogeneous
counting. For a completely dry
filter it may be necessary to
moisten the filter with one or two
drops of distilled water before
placing in Filtron-X. Simply add
filter to 10ml of Filtron-X, allow
to stand at room temperature for 15
minutes. Shake well to assure
complete dissolution of filter and
sample and then count.
