This radiocarbon dating laboratory was established to complement the research activities in the field of archaeology and geology in Korea. The benzene liquid scintillation counting method (Noakes, Kim, and Stipp, 1965; Noakes, Kim, and Akers, 1967) is employed in this laboratory because of its compatibility with other dating methods and future possibility in application of this procedure to the biomedical research field. The chemical process for converting carbon from a sample to benzene used by this laboratory is briefly outlined below.
