A scintillation counting system utilizing scintillator capsules for the detection of radioactive substances in a sample for analysis include a liquid scintillator core encapsulated within a shell. The liquid scintillator comprises a base component or components and one or more fluors. The base component preferably includes one or more aromatic solvents. The fluors useful in the liquid or gel scintillator include any of the organic fluors well-known in the scintillation counting art. The liquid or gel scintillator can also include a wavelength shifter (i.e. secondary fluors). Useful wavelength shifters are also well known in the scintillation counting art. Additionally, a other materials can be added to the scintillator capsules to modify the characteristics of the scintillator capsules, and the scintillator capsules can be used in a variety of scintillation counting applications.
