Cocktail for Mini-Vials and Flow Detectors
For Use with Flow Detector, On-Line Radiochromatography
Use Ready Flow III for on-line quantitation and automatic pooling of radiolabeled peaks with Radioisotope Detectors for reduced sample handling and faster experimental conclusions. The cocktail provides non-gelling properties, low viscosity and good pH stability (pH 1-13).
For Use with Miniature Vials, Small Volume Counting
With Ready Flow III, you can count aqueous or non-aqueous samples in as little than 1 mL of cocktail and still obtain excellent counting efficiencies. The phase diagram below illustrates that the loading capacity can exceed 30% for a variety of commonly encountered sample types.

Reduced Costs
You can save money on vials and cocktail by converting from standard (20 mL) vials to mini-vials or even Microfuge® tubes. Waste disposal costs will be reduced too.
Counting Efficiency
Ready Flow III provides high counting efficiencies even with small sample volumes. As the efficiency table indicates, you can expect Tritium counting efficiencies in excess of 40% even when counting in Microfuge tubes.
