A new approach to the calibration procedure is presented, as there is no need to discount bismuth from lead spectrum when constructing the efficiency curve. This work presents two calibration methods: one considering mostly lead spectrum contributions and other that considers both lead and bismuth contributions. Both methodologies provide consistent results when evaluated in an intercomparison program. Furthermore, this methodology allows simultaneous analysis of several samples and is suitable for any type of sample after proper digestion in liquid form.
