Gel scintillation counting of I-131 in plasma at high efficiencies.

A method is described for assaying low concentrations of (131)I in plasma by detecting the beta radiation in a gel scintillator. Higher detection efficiencies are obtained compared with measurements of the gamma radiation from this radioisotope using a well-type crystal of sodium iodide.

Simultaneous free and bound radioactive vitamin B-12 urinary excretion test.

The absorption of vitamin B(12) following the simultaneous administration of (58)Co B(12) and a complex of (57)Co B(12) with human gastric juice was assessed by measurement of urinary excretion of radioactivity. Sixteen control subjects, 13 patients with pernicious anaemia, and four who had had total gastrectomy were studied. The method proved a reliable means of detecting those with intrinsic factor deficiency.
