Abstract
A method is described by which the stability of emulsions can be measured by a modified liquid scintillation counter. The Ra 226 external standard source of a commercially available equipment, fixed in the measuring position, is used for the production of Cerenkov radiation in a sample of an emulsion. This Cerenkov radiation is absorbed by the sample due to its turbidity. The turbidity of emulsions follows a typical course with time designated as creaming-up-curve. These curves can be registrated automatically in digital form.
