PET Metabolite Detector System

PET Metabolite Detector System

The PET Metabolite Detector is a dual BGO coincidence detection system for monitoring research compounds and their metabolites labeled with PET radioisotopes.

The system consists of a modified Flow-Count base unit and two large (1.5” x 1”) BGO crystals mounted on specialized photomultiplier tubes. The detectors are supplied with mounts and a flow cell holder that can be used up to 12 feet away from the base unit, making shielding easier.

Specially designed electronics produce a count only when coincidence events are detected, providing very high sensitivity and low background levels (<10 cpm). Easily adjustable flow cell volumes allow further sensitivity optimization.


The PET Metabolite Detector can be connected to your existing chromatography data system or to the BioChrom radiochromatography data system.

  • Coincidence detection for high sensitivity and low background interference
  • Ideal for the detection of PET isotopes in blood plasma
  • Compatible with most liquid chromatography systems
  • Extended range option for maximum dynamic range and resolution
  • Compatible with BioChrom radiochromatography data software
