Beckman LS 6000 and LS 6500
Liquid Scintillation Counter
The current model LS 6500
(and LS6000 for that matter) Scintillation
Counter offers unparalleled flexibility in a single high performance
system, without the need of a dedicated external computer.
Advanced electronic components, such as a Motorola 68000
Series microprocessor supported by a digital signal processor,
maximize technological lifetime and make the LS 6500 fast and
efficient.
(NOTE: The specifications, functionality, and styling for the LS
6000 is essentially the same as the LS 6500 at lower cost!)
A 32,768
channel multichannel analyzer gives you an eight-fold improvement in
effective resolution (0.06 keV per channel) over that of
conventional liquid scintillation counters (0.5 keV per channel).
This provides the basis for:
 |
DPM results without quench curves
|
|
|
A more precise quench monitor
|
|
|
Superior results for multi-label
studies |
|
|
Automatic color detection and
correction |
Functionally
very similar to the LS5801 / LS3801 with
additional sophistication. Selection of programs is also
accomplished through the use of command cards, but the process of
editing user programs is somewhat different.
Additional
functionality for the 6500 include improved counting efficiency of
dry scintillant (eg ReadyCaps); a reversible belt carrier system
that allows for more convenient recounting of samples; counting
single racks without command card (under interrupt in the Multi Task
menu), single photon counting, and dual label studies. Entering user
programs involves selection of isotopes to set spectrometer windows
rather that actual window energies. Thus, if you wish to count
tritium in channel 1 you would select 3H
for isotope one (actually this is the default). If you wish to
manually set the window you may do so by entering
Manual in this field. Please refer the
the manual for detailed instructions.
It is
important to note that if are doing a dual labeling study you should
choose Isotope 1 as the lower energy isotope and Isotope 2 as the
higher energy isotope. The lower limit for Isotope 2 is set the same
as the upper limit for Isotope 1. Don't define multiple isotopes in
singlely labeled studies as it will result in lowered counts.
