Vented vial holder for reducing static electricity.

摘要

A holder (10) for use with scintillation counting for securing a small sample vial (50) in a vial transport carrier designed for larger vials is disclosed. The holder includes specific features for allowing elimination of static electricity charges on the sample vial by a static eliminator. The holder includes openings (32,34,36) allowing the flow of ions to contact the sample vial (50) for the purpose of eliminating static charges on the surface of the vial.
