ECD Warnings
Although beta particles at this energy level have little penetrating power – the surface layer of the skin or a few sheets
of paper will stop most of them – they may be hazardous if the isotope is ingested or inhaled. For this reason the cell
must be handled with care. Radioactive leak tests must be performed at the required intervals, the inlet and outlet
fittings must be capped when the detector is not in use, corrosive chemicals must not be introduced into the detector,
and the effluent from the detector must be vented outside the laboratory environment.
