Abstract: In this communication we present a preliminary and comparative discussion associated with the possibility of proton decay detection using two different detector technologies – water Cherenkov detectors and LAr/LXe TPCs. The components of the radioactive background have been identified and the aspects related to the ambiguities in particle identification are discussed. Aspects of the contribution of the nuclear dynamics are also considered.
