A scintillation method for measuring C/sup 14/ is described. The method consists of the oxidation of an organic compound to carbon dioxide and then trapping the gas as the ethanolamine carbonate in ethylene glycol monomethyl ether. A portion of the ethanolamine salt solution is transferred to a vial containing toluene and the scintillator, and then counted in a liquid scintillation counter. (auth)
