skos:definition "The 'radioactivity' which, if present in a sample, produces a counting rate <br/>
that can be reliably distinguished from 'background' with a certain level of <br/>confidence.<br/>
A sample containing exactly the 'minimum significant activity' will, as a result <br/>of random fluctuations, be taken to be free of 'radioactivity' 50% of the time, <br/>whereas a true 'background' sample will be taken to be free of <i>radioactivity<br/></i>95% of the time.<br/>The 'minimum significant activity' is sometimes referred to as the <i><b>decision <br/>limit</b></i>. The counting rate from a sample containing the <i>minimum significant <br/>activity</i> is termed the <i><b>critical level</b></i>.<br/>" (en)
