Alpha/beta counter control and analysis software for radiochemistry

Software for radiochemists who want analysis, QC and reporting in the same application that controls the alpha/beta counter. It controls any mix of up to 64 detectors, corrects for mass attenuation with individual calibration curves and stores the results in an open Microsoft Access-format database.

Primary function
Analysis, QC and reporting for radiochemistry in the application that controls the alpha/beta counter1
Intended system
Any mix of up to 64 detectors (MDS, WPC-9550 and MPC-9300); controls single and multi-detector, automatic and manual systems1
Quality control
Trends, efficiency and background1
Mass attenuation
Individual calibration curves for each count routine; multiple curve fits to choose from1
