FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of COCKTAIL ‘T’ Scintillation Grade?
The shelf life is 24 months from the date of manufacture when stored unopened in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, use within 12 months for optimal performance.
2. Is this cocktail compatible with aqueous and organic samples?
Yes, COCKTAIL ‘T’ is formulated to accommodate both aqueous and organic samples, ensuring broad applicability in liquid scintillation counting without phase separation or efficiency loss.
3. How does COCKTAIL ‘T’ compare to other scintillation cocktails like Ultima Gold or OptiPhase?
COCKTAIL ‘T’ offers comparable energy transfer efficiency and low background noise but is optimized for cost-effectiveness without sacrificing performance, making it ideal for high-volume laboratories.
4. What storage conditions are recommended to maintain stability?
Store the cocktail at room temperature (15–25°C) in a tightly sealed container. Avoid exposure to heat, moisture, or oxidizing agents to prevent degradation of fluorophors.
5. Can this cocktail be used for alpha/beta discrimination in LSC?
While primarily designed for beta detection, COCKTAIL ‘T’ can support alpha/beta discrimination when used with compatible LSC instruments and optimized pulse shape analysis settings.
