Levels of trace radiopurity in active detector materials is a subject of major concern in low-background experiments. Procedures were devised to measure trace concentrations of 129 I in the inorganic salt CsI as well as in organic liquid scintillator with Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS). Improve
129 I is a long-life (T 1/2 = 15.7 β’ 10 6 years) radionuclide whose presence in the environment has increased strongly since the beginning of the nuclear age. Its great potential as a radioactive tracer has been shown in the literature. However, data in the different compartments are scarce, so its
