Liquid scintillation counting at the limit of detection in biogeosciences

Liquid scintillation is widely used to quantify the activity of radioisotopes. We present an overview of the technique and its application to biogeosciences, particularly for turnover rate measurements. Microbial communities and their metabolism are notoriously difficult to analyze in low energy env...
