Activity is verified using a NaI detector for which the efficiency has been established using NIST traceable standards. Each source is labeled to identify the radionuclide, activity (in both microCuries and DPM), assay date and lot number. Standards are made in groups which are matched by counts to ensure +/- 1% source matching. Pico-Calibrators are typically used for verifying detector counting efficiency and normalizing multi-detector gamma counters. The calibrators are supplied with a Pico-Calibrator log book that contains technical information as well as a template for quality assurance.
