Product Description
POPOP (1,4-bis(5-phenyloxazol-2-yl)benzene) is a widely used scintillator fluor in liquid scintillation cocktails. This scintillation-grade POPOP from CDH ensures high purity and consistent performance, making it ideal for researchers and laboratories conducting radiometric assays, beta particle detection, and other scintillation-based applications.
When combined with primary scintillators like PPO, POPOP enhances light output and shifts the emission spectrum for better detection efficiency. Its stability and low background interference make it a preferred choice for sensitive experiments.
Whether you’re setting up a new lab or restocking your supplies, eqipped offers reliable POPOP scintillation grade in convenient pack sizes. Need high-quality scintillation chemicals? Buy POPOP online today for accurate results.
Key Applications
POPOP scintillation grade is essential for:
- Liquid scintillation counting (LSC) in nuclear medicine and environmental monitoring.
- Fluorescence studies requiring high quantum yield.
- Research involving beta-emitting isotopes like Carbon-14 and Tritium.
Why POPOP Matters in Scintillation
Scintillation cocktails rely on a combination of primary and secondary fluors. While PPO (2,5-diphenyloxazole) absorbs energy from ionizing radiation, POPOP acts as a wavelength shifter, converting the emitted light to a longer wavelength that matches the sensitivity of photomultiplier tubes. This synergy improves detection limits and signal-to-noise ratios.
For laboratories in India, sourcing high-purity POPOP is crucial for reproducible results. eqipped ensures you get authentic CDH-grade POPOP, tested for consistency and performance.
Handling and Storage
Store POPOP in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use in a well-ventilated area and follow standard lab safety protocols. For long-term storage, keep the container tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption.
FAQs
What is POPOP used for in scintillation counting?
POPOP is a secondary fluor that enhances light output in liquid scintillation cocktails, improving detection sensitivity for beta particles and other ionizing radiation.
How much POPOP should I use in my scintillation cocktail?
Typical concentrations range from 0.1% to 0.5% by weight, depending on the primary fluor (e.g., PPO) and solvent used. Refer to your protocol for exact ratios.
Can I buy POPOP scintillation grade in small quantities?
Yes, eqipped offers POPOP in 5 gm, 25 gm, and 100 gm packs to suit different research needs.
Is POPOP compatible with all scintillation solvents?
POPOP is soluble in common organic solvents like toluene, xylene, and dioxane. Always verify compatibility with your specific cocktail formulation.
