Abstract	The results of a programme of work undertaken to test the operation of gas microstrip detectors under intense X-ray irradiation are presented. The compatability of various engineering materials and electronic components with long detector lifetimes while under intense irradiation is examined. The purpose is to guarantee successful long-term MSGC operation in projects such as HOTWAXS (High Overall Throughput Wide Angle X-ray Scattering) and HOTSAXS (High Overall Throughput Small Angle X-ray Scattering).
