Filter-Count is a pseudocumene-based LSC cocktail specifically formulated to dissolve cellulose nitrate membrane filters. Filter-Count can also dissolve mixed cellulose esters and PVC (polyvinyl chloride) filters, however these sample types may require additional time. Filter-Count will dissolve these wet or dry filters, reducing sample preparation procedures and improving counting results by enabling the use of external standard quench monitoring.
Features
- Dissolves cellulose nitrate, mixed cellulose esters and polyvinyl chloride filters
